MELBOURNE, Australia and SYDNEY, Australia – Patties Foods today announced that it has entered into a partnership with Blueshift to implement its ONE Solution.
Blueshift’s ONE Solution has been adding value to Australian and NZ FMCG companies since 2002, helping them to save bottom line dollars through promotion profitability optimisation and supply gains as a result of improved forecast accuracy.
“It is quite apparent that being in a position of having good information and data at your finger tips will give any business a competitive edge in regards to the way business is conducted. When we looked at Blueshift, we saw a solution that would be able to take our business to the next level, by allowing us to gather, process and manage information more accurately, giving us the ability to make good and informed decisions in a timely and quick fashion” said Zelko Erdec, General Manager of Information Technology. He went on to say, “We found that Blueshift were highly professional in their dealings with us, understood our needs and from a cultural perspective, a good fit for Patties Foods. We don’t view Blueshift as a vendor that we deal with, but more like a value add partner that will assist in achieving our goals.”
Justin Stafford, Director and Solution Architect at Blueshift, added “Blueshift is excited to be partnering with Patties Foods. Patties Foods as a business are striving towards one-number integrated business planning which makes the ONE Solution a perfect fit.”
Blueshift’s ONE Solution will replace the existing aging Promax tool.
