Supply chain consulting and IT services firm enVista has launched Enspire Commerce, a cloud-based, multi-tenant architecture solution focused on omnichannel selling, optimization, fulfillment and integration for small to mid-market retailers, distributors and third party logistics service providers.

enVista, the supply-chain consulting and information-technology services firm, is partnering with Modality Solutions, which integrates cold-chain management systems for highly regulated industries.

enVista has joined with Avercast to provide demand-planning and sales and operations planning (S&OP) applications to users of Microsoft Dynamics AX.

There's a significant difference between mere vendor compliance and strategic vendor management, according to Jim Barnes, senior managing partner with enVista.
