Victor Allis, CEO of Quintiq says, "We are delighted with Walmart's choice of Quintiq. We believe this demonstrates that no supply chain is too large or complex for our state-of-the-art Supply Chain Optimization software.”

Quintiq Software, configured for the retail and distribution industry, is used to support Walmart Logistics Load Managers with assigning loads to driver-truck combinations to create optimal sets of trips, and to dispatch those trips through an On-Board Computer to the driver. Based on real-time updates from the driver’s on-board computer, Quintiq’s optimization engine continuously re-optimizes the sequence of trips and provides recommendations to Logistics Load Managers through its user interface.

Quintiq software is based on a revolutionary in-memory technology that provides direct feedback to the end-user and allows for increased visibility of a retail supply chain. Fast system feedback to end users is necessary, especially in a logistical environment where decisions need to be made within seconds. The in-memory technology allows for users to evaluate the impact of their individual decisions on the overall performance indicators in a real-time environment.
