August 26, 2009 (FinancialWire) — Extended Enterprise Management from Manhattan Associates (NASDAQ: MANH) has enabled fashion retailer Anna’s Linens to automate its manual processes, improve/gain real-time visibility into inventory across its supply chain as well as manage data and communications to support 750K purchase orders and invoices annually. In addition, EEM provides real-time communication with more than 100 of Anna’s Linen’s key vendors and partners.

“EEM enables us to handle the flow of data, visibility, communications, and vendor compliance management between all four points in our supply chain: Store Support Center, vendors, distribution centers and retail stores,” said Miles Tedder, vice president, supply chain for Anna’s Linens. “We put more supply chain functionality in place in 12-18 months than most companies deploy in four or five years — a necessary step for our company’s future growth plans.”
