Setting the standard for on-demand inventory-management solutions

New module gives users unprecedented real-time visibility into end-to-end supply-chain operations.

Waer today announced WaerLinx 6.0, a new release of the industry-leading demand-driven inventory-management software solution. This latest release includes WaerViz, a new module that takes supply-chain visibility to the next level.

"Supply chains are getting ever-more complex," says Will Scott, CEO of Waer. "With multiple sites, suppliers and countries, the big picture becomes more and more important. WaerViz directly addresses this, giving supply-chain professionals everywhere complete visibility, 24 hours a day."

With visibility across the supply chain, organizations never run low on stock: their suppliers already know the situation, and can deliver just-in-time inventory right at the point of use.

From one simple screen, WaerViz allows users to see item-level detail across all echelons of their global supply chains. And it gives them the flexibility to react fast to the reality on the ground, moving and reconfiguring stock with ease.

WaerViz joins five existing modules in the WaerLinx suite: WaerWMS (warehouse management system), WaerVMI (vendor-managed inventory), WaerReplenish (automated stock replenishment), WaerKit (kitting module) and WaerTrack (tracking and tracing functionality).

"WaerViz means you can simplify, streamline and improve your supply chain," says Scott. "It doesn’t just analyze and recommend - it automatically optimizes your supply chain at all times. It also provides detailed reporting. Best of all, it can make paperwork a thing of the past and automate your transactions so that all you need is a contract, one invoice per month, and you’re done."

WaerViz is part of an ongoing program of development, driven directly by feedback from Waer customers, including Airbus, Schenker and Bombardier.

"WaerLinx helps us deliver," says Mathieu Delassus of Schenker. "It has global reach and is very easy to use. It’s an ideal solution for the aviation aftermarket through a Logistics Service Provider."

The WaerLinx suite will continue to be enhanced as the company expands into new industries, geographies and supply-chain types. To enable this expansion, Waer recently closed a Series A investment round led by Logispring, the transatlantic investor in structural innovation for the industrial world.

"WaerLinx 6.0 sets the standard for demand-driven inventory-management solutions," says Scott. "With each release, we’re delivering significant savings to customers, through greatly improved productivity and lower operating costs. WaerViz is a key part of that strategy."
