Cogniti Proclaimed SCM "Cool Vendor" by Leading Analyst Firm

Plano, Texas - March 29, 2012 – Cogniti, a leading performance and risk management software provider, has been identified by Gartner as a 2012 “Cool Vendor” in Supply Chain Management1.

According to Gartner Research, “Supply chain performance management must move beyond historical reports from business intelligence (BI) investments (performance measurement, for example), and start focusing on closed-loop performance management, with results, outcomes and actions tightly tied together, aligned horizontally and vertically in the organization.”

Added Gartner Research, “the presentation of strategies, tactics, and plans is effective and clear. It is one of the strongest Gartner has seen in representing supply chain initiatives in this way. The solution is highly collaborative and role-based, giving users a clear visual representation of performance in a formalized and structured way.”

With Cogniti, organizations can identify and model key business initiatives, track performance, provide early alert of performance drifts, and suggest corrective action to get back on the right track.

“Our vision for Cogniti from the outset was to create a game-changing solution,” states Peter Prince, President and CEO of Cogniti. “We have created a closed-loop, forward-looking solution that is easy to deploy, powerfully functional, and fast to realized benefit. It was clear that the marketplace was crying out for something more than just historical views. I am delighted that Gartner recognizes Cogniti as a 2012 SCM Cool Vendor.”
