“Old conventions can't serve new conditions," says Aleman. “Businesses increasingly realize that capturing value in today’s changing world requires a new planning approach--solutions that move seamlessly, collaboratively and continuously in-time with that change.”
Lisa joined the Steelwedge organization in June, having led global operations for six years at Radisys, a leading telecommunications and networking provider. While at Radisys, Aleman was a key customer advisor on Integrated Business Planning strategies and market requirements as Steelwedge was developing its PlanStreaming™ planning platform in 2015, and its Collaborative Supply Planning and Revenue-First™ Response Management solutions, both released in the first half of 2016.
The Gartner Supply Chain Executive Conference, held Sept. 19-20, is the world’s most important gathering of supply chain leaders. A two-part, bimodal supply chain is the new reality for organizations. This marriage of two distinct approaches delivers day-in, day-out reliability and game-changing innovation at the same time.
