Named to SupplyChainBrain’s 100 Great Supply Chain Partners

August 24, 2021

2021 Marks Ninth Consecutive Year for Open Sky Group for this Client-Nominated Industry Listing

RALEIGH, N.C. (August 24, 2021) – Open Sky Group, global specialists in Blue Yonder solutions, is honored to be listed among SupplyChainBrain’s 2021 “100 Great Supply Chain Partners” for the ninth consecutive time in the firm’s 15-year history.

SupplyChainBrain bases its list on customer-vendor nominations, relying on real-world testimonials as the true measure of whether a company is living up to its marketing claims. This year’s theme, “It Takes a Team to Win,” underscores the cooperative spirit many supply chain firms emphasized in navigating the various crises global markets experienced over the last 12 months, chiefly accentuated by the COVID-19 pandemic.

According to the publication, 10 characteristics typify exceptional vendors named to the list: reliability, service excellence, value, knowledge of the customer’s business, problem-solving skills, an attitude of continuous improvement, solid after-sales support, a positive “can-do” attitude, global reach and strong leadership.

“Our inclusion on this list speaks to the hard work and dedication of our team members in delivering superior customer service in the face of extremely trying times,” said Chad Kramlich, Open Sky Group CRO. “We highly prize our customer relationships at Open Sky Group, and to stand on the merits of their testimonies in this recognition is a humbling reminder that no partnership in business can ever be taken for granted.”

Open Sky Group, founded in 2006, has since expanded its solutions from WMS implementations, upgrades, and resales to include LMS/TMS and managed services support for more than 100 clients across more than 900 supply chain software engagements.

SupplyChainBrain has been publishing its list of “100 Great Supply Chain Partners” for 19 years.

Said Brad Berger, SupplyChainBrain publisher, “We ask our readers to nominate vendors and service providers whose solutions have made a significant impact on their company’s efficiency, customer service, and overall supply chain performance.”
