May 25, 2006 - Back from near disaster, i2 Technologies a brand once synonymous with supply chain management (SCM) reassured its customers and explained its way forward at its annual conference in Las Vegas. Central to i2s comeback strategy is an application creation platform built on a service-oriented architecture (SOA). The company promises that the i2 Agile Business Process Platform will help customers create supply chain planning and execution applications specific to their companies and create supply chain analytics using a unified data model. Ventana Research believes that i2 will need to bolster its messaging, sharpen its midmarket positioning and provide a better performance management offering if it is to prevent niche players from continuing to erode its customer base.
After years of negative earnings, legal battles and bad press, CEO Michael McGrath shared i2s vision of the future at i2 Planet, its user conference and showcase in Las Vegas. Even though the company missed revenue targets for the first quarter, McGrath pointed to four consecutive quarters of profit, $117 million in cash, the release of nine new planning solutions, a software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering and 35 new customer implementations to assure the audience that i2 is here to stay and driving forward.
