“The cost savings opportunities identified run into the hundreds of millions of dollars over the period examined...River Logic’s solution enables us to extend the number of variables that could impact decisions — such as sourcing options, capacities and capabilities, inter-trading-zone product duties, interplant product transfer prices, and distribution costs. We reduced spreadsheet simulations by 90% and decreased the time required for scenario evaluation from weeks to hours."

“We were attracted to the flexibility of River Logic. We can determine things such as where and how to blend coal, adjust plans based on customized multi-criteria optimization, and simulate financial flows. We will continue to use River Logic to streamline our efforts for determining functionally-aligned plans that optimize our performance objectives.”

Head of Planning, SUEK Energy
“The main thing that makes River Logic unique is that it starts with your real-world business (product, process, etc) and then attaches the financials. With other planning, you go straight to financials or simplify the inputs.”
Chris McCallum
COO, Shoes of Prey
“One of the key values from River Logic is the ability to bring our functional teams data that they can make actionable…We want them to understand the opportunity cost of producing and selling one more or one less of that product, and River Logic enables that for us.”

VP of Planning, McKee Foods
“The implementation of River Logic makes it possible to plan the delivery time and cost of each postal item, choosing the most optimal routes. This allows us to not only meet delivery deadlines but also to deliver mail faster than the norm and identify bottlenecks in the production and logistics network to promptly eliminate them. Moreover, the system has reduced logistic costs by 10-15%.”

Deputy General Director for Logistics, Russian Postal Service
“We could finally show people in a meeting what it would cost to move away from the best answer, and implement their new policy. It radically shortened the decision-making process and improved stakeholder meetings.”
