Independent competitive research firm, wRatings Corporation recently completed a report stating companies that partner with and implement Fortna<\/a> designed solutions over the past twelve years are competitively stronger than their direct industry peers in terms of pricing power, sales revenue per employee and customer advantages.<\/p>\n

Based on a year-over-year analysis, the Fortna<\/a> Client Group has built superior customer strength over Non-Fortna Clients an average of 9.7% and as much as 12% higher over the past twelve years. This strength allows Fortna Clients to maintain high service levels while shortening order cycle times, thus contributing to long-term relationships and sustainability with their customers.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor industries that are heavily reliant on distribution, time is critical,\u201d said Gary Williams, CEO and founder of wRatings. \u201cFortna<\/a> Clients have the ability to better make and deliver on promises than industry peers. In today\u2019s service-oriented environment, fulfilment speed improvements and shortened order cycle times can be the edge that allows companies to grow and survive.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud that clients who invest in Fortna<\/a> designed solutions have shown measurable competitive strength over their industry peers,\u201d said John A. White III, president and CEO of Fortna<\/a>. \u201cIn today\u2019s demanding e-commerce environment, our clients rely on robust, flexible and responsive operations to maintain their competitive edge. While overall business performance is impacted, in part, by operations outside Fortna<\/a>\u2019s areas of focus, best performing companies have chosen Fortna as their partner.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fortna has partnered with the world\u2019s top brands to transform their distribution operations into a competitive advantage.<\/p><\/div>\n

Other factors analyzed in this report which contribute to overall competitive strength include pricing power and sales per employee of Fortna Clients.

In the last three years, Fortna<\/a> Clients possess ~2% more pricing power than industry peers.\u00a0 Further, since 2005, Fortna Clients generate $101,000 more sales per employee than industry peers every year on average.<\/p>\n
