Real Customer Testimony:

"We have been able to reduce our on-hand inventory without jeopardizing our production schedules since we implemented the Zend-based Supplier Portal. It's working extremely well. Suppliers can stay on top of Business opportunities and improve their delivery rates and performance rankings. We move as much business as possible to suppliers rated 'Superior', so there is a major incentive to perform well. We have gone from a 50% on-time-delivery rate to a 90 to 95% rate on materials from our vendors. This has allowed us to dramatically improve our on-time-delivery rates to our customers."

- Dean Evers, Purchasing Manager - Aarrowcast, Inc.
