MORE INFO: Giant Will Use RHYTHM Suite i2 Technologies has announced that its RHYTHM suite of products is to be implemented by Compaq Computer Corporation, supporting the company's initiative to serve large corporate customers directly over the internet... Compaq has traditionally sold its products through a global re-seller network. Company executives wanted a business model that would facilitate the selling of computers direct to customers while continuing to support indirect sales. By building the backbone of a new e-business model, RHYTHM will allow Compaq to deliver solutions that met the diverse requirements of both channels and will ensure that customer orders are fulfilled within 5 days. Orders will be accepted 24 hours a day, seven days a week and as a result, Compaq anticipates improvements in planing cycle times and inventory reduction, leading to greater customer satisfaction.
