Samsung SDS has upgraded its own integrated Supply Chain and Logistics (SCL) system ― Cello ― to a cloud-based Software as a Service (SaaS) platform, to expand its business into global markets.

The IT systems affiliate of Samsung Group unveiled its newly-upgraded logistics and Supply Chain Management (SCM) service which is provided as a cloud-based SaaS platform, at the Cello Tech Fair 2016 held at Samsung SDS West Campus in Jamsil, Seoul, Thursday.

SaaS has recently been in the IT industry limelight because it lends software to clients, allowing them to avoid risks of management and infrastructure investment.

Samsung SDS announced it will offer its upgraded Cello for its client companies at home and abroad.

Clients seem to be able to lessen their risks of IT infrastructure investment in the early stage as the system will provide the optimal way to deliver products through big data analysis, the company official said.

The two themes of the Cello Tech Fair 2016 were "Smart Logistics" and "Smart SCM." Samsung SDS exhibited various cloud -based and advanced logistics technologies under these themes.

According to Samsung SDS, clients can optimally load their products in warehouses with the Cello Loading Optimization service. They can overcome time and space constraints with the Cello Virtual Warehouse System which provides a virtual warehouse through 3D virtual reality imaging.

The company official said clients can react quickly to rapidly changing business environments with the Cello Agile Planning service, as it enables them to experience the whole process of the integrated system. Also, machine learning-based SaaS SCM analyzes risks and opportunities with sales data of clients and expected future demand, according to the company.

"We anticipate that more clients will experience the state-of-the-art IT-based logistics service with our Cello system provided as SaaS, which is easier and faster," a Samsung SDS official said.
