Bellevue, Washington October 14, 2020 – AIMMS is proud to announce that La-Z-Boy has chosen AIMMS Network Design to further optimize its supply chain and position the company for long-term growth. La-Z-Boy chose AIMMS Network Design for its built-in scenario modeling capability, ease of use and overall speed to achieving results. La-Z-Boy was able to start using the Network Design App quickly, without the long learning curve that is typically needed when embracing network optimization technology. The organization welcomed the ability to quickly get powerful insights and new levels of visibility.

AIMMS helps manufacturing companies around the world optimize supply chain planning decisions in an accessible, intuitive way. The software taps into powerful prescriptive analytics that helps companies anticipate what is likely to happen, assess possible scenarios and provide an optimal recommended action. This makes it easier for supply chain professionals to test hypotheses, understand trade-offs and proactively optimize their supply chain networks armed with quantifiable data supporting key decisions.

”We chose AIMMS because its app wraps a state-of-the-art solver engine in an easy-to-use data interface with strong scenario modeling and results visualization tools. This enables us to quickly evaluate various scenarios that drive supply chain efficiency and customer satisfaction. The system allowed us to be up and running very quickly and AIMMS’ partnership and support throughout the on-boarding process has been outstanding,” said La-Z-Boy VP of Transformation, Chris Furlong.

“We are thrilled that La-Z-Boy has chosen AIMMS to be its co-pilot for supply chain network design decisions,” said AIMMS VP North America, Chris Gordon. “We look forward to helping the company navigate today’s uncertain environment and build even more supply chain resilience for the future.”
