“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."

"Our team has enjoyed working with every single member of the River Logic team on our supply chain network optimization and S&OP project.

“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.”

Lewis Belknap
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%.”

Alexey Skatin
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.”

“We had an opportunity to lease space and labor from any of 4 potential distribution centers in the area, but until now we had no way of knowing the full financial impact of doing so…”Finally, we could make a capital proposal to the Board with confidence in our ability to deliver.”

“The throughput KPIs of operations teams don’t align with the ROI requirements for finance, hence it is impossible to maximize profitability and growth of a business. Because operational activities can be mapped to financial implications, River Logic allows clients to embark on a journey to generate solutions to problems that have a global optimum.”

“River Logic can determine the most profitable strategy for demand fulfillment in a matter of minutes, delivering immediate value to the bottom-line.”
