According to Manufacturing & Logistics IT, OMP Plus will be used to plan and schedule continuous, batch and campaign manufacturing as well as distribution. OMP Designer will assist EASTMAN CHEMICAL COMPANY in optimizing its global Supply Chain Network.

Kevin Pruitt, Director at Eastman Chemical Company: "The choice for OM Partners was established after a period of in-depth comparison with other vendor solutions. APS systems previously acquired by Eastman, allowed us to understand which unresolved planning problems we wanted to address through new software. Seamless integration with our SAP system was another very important element in our detailed requirements list. OM Partners simply had the best fit."
