Today, business turbulence is the new normal. Manufacturers and global supply chains face unrelenting fluctuations in supply and demand.

“The enhancements we've made will improve our customers' user experience, increase business efficiency and mitigate risk,” said Charles Sutherland, chief product officer at QAD. “We’re especially thrilled to add QAD Redzone Connected Workforce and QAD Process Intelligence to our family of solutions. Both help our customers minimize friction and strengthen their competitiveness.”
