• ClearOrbit garnered the Award for Supply Chain Management Technology Excellence.
The awards, given annually since 2001 as part of the Supply Chain World North America conference, recognize excellence in supply chain performance. Winners were selected by the SCC's Technical Development Steering Committee (TDSC) based on the nature and complexity of their improvement project and their ability to demonstrate value.
United States Transportation Command
The U.S. Transportation Command, part of the Department of Defense, was formed to help support the synchronization of land, air and sea transportation in both peace and war. To improve the effectiveness and optimally support warfighter needs, US Transcom was tasked to align interdependent yet disparate enterprise architectures of all partners worldwide. USTranscom applied standard, independent terminology, including SCOR linkages, to develop a common architecture in just three months that resulted in clear linkages, increased visibility and process improvement. The resulting collaboration eliminated architecture redesign and reduced future spending by millions.
ClearOrbit
ClearOrbit, a supply chain software company, was recognized for automating materials replenishment and reducing spending on maintenance, repair and operations material by connecting more than 1,800 suppliers for a major automotive original equipment manufacturer. Completed in six weeks, the project resulted in a 33% reduction in the supply base and allowed employees to eliminate non-value activities an average of 35%.
Second place winners in the categories include Hewlett-Packard for Technology Excellence, and Motorola and the Defense Logistics Agency for Operational Excellence.
