Paoli, PA – April 25, 2012 – ASSIST incorporated, a niche supplier of supply chain visibility and shop floor execution systems for the ADAGE user community, today announces that Polymerics has gone live with the ASSISTics Supply Chain Visibility suite. “Polymerics is excited to have ASSISTICS rolled out in our rubber mixing and chemical blending operations” says Tim Samples, CEO, Polymerics. “We have only been using the program for a couple of weeks and we have already reduced our daily materials planning worksheets from over sixty pages to one simple page that shows us exactly what we need to do that day. We anticipate being able to reduce our raw material inventory by $250,000 because of the efficiency and visibility ASSISTICS provides.
