RedPrairie Acquires On-demand Warehouse Management Provider, SmartTurn

RedPrairie Corporation, a productivity solutions provider, has completed the acquisition of SmartTurn, a leading on-demand inventory and WMS provider. The acquisition adds a multi-tenant software-as-a-service (SaaS) WMS to RedPrairie's E²e productivity suite and creates a software company with a WMS solution for distribution operations of all sizes and levels of complexity. With the flexibility to provide a WMS solution for any distribution operation, RedPrairie can now also provide increased visibility and collaboration between large distribution operations and their partner hubs that are too small for a traditional WMS.

SmartTurn's Inventory and WMS solution, which is running at more than 200 facilities, will be rebranded as RedPrairie's On-Demand WMS and will focus on less complex distribution operations with rapid implementation demands and flexible pricing model requirements.
