Blue Agave is teaming up with many of the industry's leading software providers to accelerate the adoption of Active Performance Management (APM) in the CPG market and beyond. Leveraging our APM platform, our Software Vendor Partners are able to deliver powerful, end-to-end real-time performance management solutions as extensions of their core offerings.
These APM-based solutions help organizations proactively detect and guide the resolution of developing issues and potential problems before they adversely impact the business. APM solutions continuously correlate tremendous volumes of disparate information - from internal IT systems, as well as from the external systems of partners, retailers, suppliers, and vendors - to uncover issues that too often remain hidden in the gaps between systems, processes, and organizations.

Blue Agave has teamed up with Synectics Group (www.synecticsgroup.com) to provide the industry's first real-time, closed-loop Trade Promotion Management (TPM) solution that delivers proactive control at all stages of the promotion — from planning through execution to post-analysis. The joint solution delivers up-to-the-minute insight into actual takeaway and lift during the promotion period, fueling decisions that maximize promotion effectiveness and profitability. In addition to this real-time promotion execution, the combined offering provides pre- and post-promotion analysis, budgeting, planning, and payment & deduction resolution.
With their acquisition of Retail Solutions (www.retailsolutions.com), VeriSign (www.verisign.com) has joined Blue Agave to offer the CPG/Retail industry's most comprehensive solution for transforming the tremendous volume of point-of-sale data from multiple retailers into knowledge and action. The fully integrated solution combines a robust demand signal repository for capturing and managing demand data, real-time problem detection and resolution, as well as reporting and analysis. This combination of capabilities helps CPG suppliers make more informed decisions that eliminate stock-outs and excess, while improving new item sales, promotion performance, and forecasting.

Blue Agave Software and webMethods (www.webmethods.com) have formed a partnership to help enterprises become more demand-driven. The partnership brings together the S&OP (sales and operations planning) monitoring capabilities of the webMethods for the Demand Driven Enterprise solutions with Blue Agave's Retail Channel ExecutionT suite of demand-driven business applications. By combining webMethods' ability to provide real-time enterprise-wide access to store sales information with the timely interpretation of store/SKU-level POS (point-of-sale) data from Blue Agave, retailers and consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies can elevate their speed and ability to sense and respond to changes in demand. This enables customers to more effectively resolve store-level stock outs, excess inventory and forecasting issues. For more information, please view the press release announcing the partnership.
