100 Great Supply Chain Partners
Readers Recognize Providers Who Improve Efficiency
Global Logistics
& Supply Chain Strategies, August, 2003
Nominations of supply management and sourcing solutions also
tended to come from high levels in the organization, who could
see across silos and functional areas.
Stephen O’Mara, vice president of
J.F. Braun & Sons nominated Blinco Systems for its 3rdwave
application that single-handedly provides the food trading
company’s enterprise-wide global sourcing, trading and
synchronized supply-chain execution solutions. As the leading
importer and wholesaler of nuts and dried fruit in the U.S.,
Braun & Sons has been able to automate many trading, order
management and logistics processes as well as gain accurate
visibility into its entire global supply chain.
“Since we have been live with 3rdwave,
we are better able to monitor and control long-term contract
positions,” says O’Mara.
He says that he depends on the global food
distribution and sourcing experience of Blinco’s management
to deliver a highly business-process-driven, tightly crafted
solution that accurately reflected the firm’s needs.
“In a high quality, highly competitive
environment, our dedication to providing exceptional customer
service to match the requirements of our food manufacturers
and food service distributors that rely on us daily, it is
imperative that we have a solution that provides a real-time
360-degree view of our customer,” he says. “We
appreciate that [Blinco] is able to understand and translate
our corporate vision into their 3rdwave solution and has given
us the core and additional functionality we need to meet and
even exceed our customers’ needs.”
What is most important to O’Mara
is that Blinco Systems is there to provide J.F. Braun &
Sons with the support and domain knowledge to help it achieve
its future IT goals.
