Logility, Inc., a leader in supply chain innovation powering the sustainable and resilient enterprise, today announced a partnership with Planalytics, Inc. to identify, quantify and apply weather-driven demand calculations to business planning and forecasting. The partnership enables Logility customers to layer in Planalytics' predictive demand metrics to better understand impacts across their customer base and proactively capitalize on sales opportunities created by favorable weather while mitigating risks when demand is negatively impacted.
