ALOM Launches Compass, New Customer Portal
ALOM's new customer portal, Compass, launched this week to great fanfare. Already prior to launch, the concepts behind this innovative, leading portal have received great accolades. Compass is user driven with real-time global reporting that can be scheduled and generate communications to different people in different formats. It also has an alert system that allows users to set exception based alerts.
At the launch party at ALOM's headquarters, ALOM's CEO, Hannah Kain, discussed the information overload, the complexity of the supply chain and the new concepts. "The principle is to get the users only the pertinent and accurate information exactly when they need it," said Kain. "With today's complex supply chain, there is too much information to absorb, and there is no reason to overwhelm our customers with information. Instead we are giving them the information that allows them to be successful in managing their business."
While Compass was launched with champagne and speeches, the development team behind Compass committed to continuous development to continue to add functionality. "We want to continue to maintain our technological leadership role in the supply chain industry," added Kain.
