“Our job is to make sure we have the right lighting products at the right time to meet demand…We’ve learned that much of our demand is a real challenge to predict, and SmartForecasts allows us to understand demand patterns better and more quickly, which then allows us to correctly plan our inventories to accommodate the demand volatility.”

Without Smart, I think we would have seen a continued growth in our inventory and not necessarily gotten any greater benefit for service.”
