"We see VMI as an important and growing business practice in the industrial aftermarket," said David Zoesch, Schaeffler Group North America Director of National Accounts. "In addition to helping improve availability and reduce inventory management costs for our distributor partners, the VMI process provides demand visibility that will enable us to streamline our supply chain and work more closely with those partners to build mutual sales. We selected Datalliance VMI as the platform for our program because they have extensive experience in our industry. Since a number of other suppliers in our market use Datalliance VMI, many of our customers are already familiar with the platform."

Schaeffler Group is very committed to the VMI process and we look forward to supporting them on this important initiative. The growth of VMI in the industrial aftermarket is based on the mutual sales increases and reduced costs both distributors and manufacturers are achieving. Leveraging our industry experience and existing distributor systems connections, we anticipate helping Schaeffler get their VMI program up and running quickly."
