Since 2014, Tech Breakthrough has created market intelligence and industry recognition programs for companies ranging from Fortune 500 to early-stage startups in today’s most competitive technology sectors, including supply chain and logistics. With over 1,400 global nominations this year in the SupplyTech Breakthrough Awards, Longbow Advantage now ranks among the top companies in the industry predicting future labor needs and generating real-time insight into progress against planned labor. 

With the increasing expectations of warehouse manufacturing, along with the shifting trend in retailer purchasing, Longbow Advantage understands the need to keep pace with the growing demands of consumers. Through its first-of-its-kind Rebus® Labor Planning solution, Longbow Advantage has been able to customize company labor implementation strategies with Warehouse Management System (WMS) and Logistics Management System (LMS)-agnostic labor planning, in which company executives are able to read historical data from any LMS so they can forecast staffing goals effectively.
