FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

‍ATLANTA – Feb. 27, 2024 – ketteQ, a trail-blazing provider of supply chain planning and optimization solutions that deliver break-through levels of operational and financial performance, today announced oral health company quip has deployed ketteQ’s Supply Planning solutions. ketteQ replaced a legacy system following a successful implementation process.    

Previously, quip was using its longstanding system to manage supply, where many processes were manual and handled via spreadsheets and legacy tools. Now with ketteQ, the leading oral health company takes demand signals from across its omnichannel supply chain and global subscription businesses – ultimately improving purchasing and inventory planning, delivering time and cost savings and eliminating excess inventory.

Products sold by quip are sourced worldwide with multiple demand sources, including its ecommerce and subscription business, as well as retail partners like Walmart and Target. This makes advanced inventory optimization and supply planning critical. ketteQ’s solutions use the power of top cloud-based services to harness the right data and scenarios needed for much faster, more accurate planning to best meet on-time and in-full demand with lower inventory levels and costs.

“Our decision to replace our legacy system with ketteQ to increase our inventory and supply planning capabilities was absolutely the right call,” said Athena Tsamoutalis, Head of Operations, quip. “ketteQ stepped up with data integration, user training and transformation services that minimized any burden on internal business and IT, deploying solutions that help us grow our business and better serve both our customers and retail partners.”

Ultimately, quip’s long-term goals with ketteQ include enhanced financial performance, increased market share, expansion to additional retail partners and cost reduction.  

“Our team was excited by the opportunity to partner with quip and replace a legacy system to help them achieve their business growth objectives. Our solutions are designed to address the challenges of CPG (Consumer Packaged Goods) companies, where long supply lead times need to match the high expectations of channels and customers,” said ketteQ CEO Mike Landry. “Deployment is quick, leveraging standard cloud platforms of AWS and Salesforce - which accelerate the time-to-value for customers like quip.”

ketteQ’s solution uses a next-generation solver engine to test thousands of scenarios and options for decisions like sourcing and transportation, providing optimal demand planning and forecasting by integrating and leveraging vast amounts of data to sharpen visibility across the entire supply chain and improve on-time delivery.
