Melbourne, Australia, December 5, 2017 – SparePartsKnowHow.com and Smart Software announced a new content sharing alliance as part of Smart Software’s sponsorship of SparePartsKnowHow.com. The alliance brings together SparePartsKnowHow.com, the leading provider of spare parts related online training, and Smart Software, a global leader in demand planning and forecasting solutions.
This alliance will enable SparePartsKnowHow.com to expand its already extensive knowledge base to include more demand planning and forecasting content. In turn, Smart Software will make use of SparePartsKnowHow.com content to provide a greater breadth of know-how to its clients.
Referring to this alliance, Mr. Greg Hartunian, President & CEO of Smart Software said, ‘Phillip Slater is a global thought-leader in spare parts inventory management and has built SparePartsKnowHow.com into the leading online resource center for spare parts management practitioners. We are very excited to be associated with the site.’
‘In particular we were attracted by the global reach that the site provides and we want to be part of that reach into the future. Our mission is to provide analytical solutions that help our customers leverage their corporate data to plan for demand, optimize stock holding, and to generate significant economic return. By joining in this alliance, we expect to gain even further exposure to the global community of spare parts management professionals. In turn, this means that more companies will be able to achieve their spare parts management goals.’
Phillip Slater, Founder of SparePartsKnowHow.com said, ‘Our vision is to become the central hub for anyone involved in spare parts management, anywhere in the world. In addition to our own online resource center and training, with this alliance, our clients and subscribers will be introduced to additional content and a service provider that they can trust.’
Mr. Slater added, ‘We have been very selective in forming alliances and one of the attractions of Smart Software is that they have a clear understanding of one of the main problems with spare parts management: forecasting of parts that exhibit intermittent demand. Their APICS award-winning method for intermittent demand forecasting is a clear differentiator of Smart Software’s expertise and makes them a welcome addition to SparePartsKnowHow.com.’
‘I suggest that anyone interested in understanding Smart Software’s approach register for their upcoming webinar.’
