SIGMA, based in New Jersey, has been in business since 1985. The company's core products are Waterworks pipe fittings and accessories. SIGMA pioneered production of these pipe fittings in China starting in 1985, and since then has steadily grown to be the second largest AWWA pipe fittings supplier in the USA. Because SIGMA imports much of their product from China, they are presented with a supply chain planning challenge every year related to the Chinese New Year when many factories close for the holiday. However, with less than two hours of careful planning in Absolute Value, SIGMA is able to avoid their normal product availability issues during that time.
Mitchell Rona, the VP of Operations for SIGMA, deems Absolute Value an "excellent forecasting and inventory tool. It is yet another way that SIGMA demonstrates its commitment to efficiency, strategic planning, and excellent customer service.”
