DALLAS--Consumers are hungry for the latest tech gadget, automobile, home appliance and mobile device fully-equipped with personalized components and next-generation capabilities. In response, businesses are scrambling to introduce products quickly in order to capitalize on market opportunity as well as manage the fast-moving pace of changing circumstances, products, technology and information. But this speed of business can burden the supply chain making it more complex and risky, and requiring it to be agile and quick to respond.

Today’s businesses need flexible solutions to manage rapidly changing business environments. A business content library – similar to a library card catalog – provides an opportunity for businesses to access business process workflows, organized by desired business outcomes in various industries. These workflows are designed for common business situations, allowing customers to draw on best practices from across industries. For example, a consumer products company that needs to improve supply chain visibility as it launches a new running shoe, can access a workflow that demonstrates how an automotive OEM tracks shipments and visibility to deliver parts in a timely manner. The workflow can be customized to fit the consumer company, but retain the basic best practices of how to streamline processes for a more efficient launch. Once implemented these workflows can be quickly modified to reflect changing business conditions.

i2 Technologies (NASDAQ:ITWO) can discuss how companies are using these workflows to drive value and simplify business complexity.
