TRAVERSE CITY, Mich.,
Jan. 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/
-- Starboard Corp, the leading innovator in Supply Chain
Design software, reports that usage of its platform has trippled in
2021 and its customer base has doubled. Starboard's 70+
customers include some of the leading companies in Consumer Goods,
Retail, Discrete Manufacturing, 3PL's, and management consulting
firms. Adoption of its software as a service is expected to
increase further in 2022. The Covid pandemic and its
associated disruptions served to hasten a 20-year trend towards
more dexterous supply chains—ones that can morph with emergent
opportunities and challenges without being constrained by long term
commitments. The configurations of modern supply chain
networks continuously evolve as supply chain leaders respond to
disruptions and support corporate strategies that include
nearshoring, omni-channel distribution, and direct to consumer
models. Starboard is responding to this demand for agile
network design.
Starboard's CEO, Steve Johanson,
says "Supply Chain Design was perceived as something companies did
every two to five years. That is because legacy tools were
difficult and expensive—they don't match the speed of change in the
21st century where continuous re-design is the current
state. The modern supply chain leader sees every
decision in concert with the evolution of the whole supply
chain. They need design technology that is fast and nimble,
the two tenets upon which Starboard is built."
Starboard's platform, Navigator, changes the paradigm of supply
chain design and is selected by supply chain leaders because it
delivers:
- Productivity—4-5X faster modeling—analysts answer questions
rather than manipulate data
- Time to Value—Decisions made in hours instead of months
- Visual Design—users and executives interact with supply chains
not tables and the tool is attractive to millennials and GenZ
employees
- Flexible licensing structure—organizations are not limited to
one or two specialty technicians. Analysis can be distributed to
the logistics experts
- Future Proof Technology—Navigators' modern architecture and
aggressive development cycle provide a richer roadmap than any
other tool on the market
Starboard provides detailed answers to classic network design
questions, examples include:
- Where should I put my next distribution center?
- What is the best configuration of suppliers and manufacturing
sites?
- How can I (economically) get my service time to meet customer
expectations?

"Starboard will be the disruptive and likely more
cost-effective technology that will allow industry and globally
based supply chain management teams to make their product demand
and supply networks more responsive and timelier to continuous
business changes."
