Smoothie Mambo
Automation, Multi-User Synchronization and Untethered Collaboration
Smoothie® Mambo installs on a server to automate integration and synchronize the demand and supply planning activities of multiple Smoothie users. With Smoothie Mambo, users can easily get the latest data from the server, work on it locally, then send their results back to the server when they're done. The synchronization approach is similar to the way users synchronize with their corporate email server, allowing them to work on a plane or in a hotel room without being connected to the corporate network, then synchronize with the host server when it's convenient.
The server controls the information that users can view and modify. For example, one user may be able to see any items or customer demand in the model, but only update plans for a certain group. It also controls the elements of the main plan that they can receive or send back to the server.
Features include:
- Automated bi-directional integration with enterprise systems
- Centralized administration simplifies end user training requirements
- Synchronization and review of collaborative input
- User-configurable email processing alerts
- Centralized and automated spreadsheet distribution and consolidation
- Automated Smoothie client upgrades
- Easy migration from standalone installations
Smoothie Mambo comes with an affordable price tag and it can be installed, configured, and integrated with existing Smoothie data feeds in minutes, so you can smoothly progress to a multi-user setup without ever having to implement a whole new technology. Until Smoothie Mambo came around, companies had to choose between nimble standalone solutions and overblown, over-priced, hard-to-implement demand management klunkers. Now, it's easy to start with a standalone forecasting model, then grow into demand collaboration and integrated supply planning without the costs, risks and delays of a big software project.
