MicroStrategy Incorporated, a leading worldwide provider of business intelligence (BI) software, announced that Saddle Creek Corporation has deployed MicroStrategy software to provide its customers with access to expanded, real-time reporting capabilities. Saddle Creek is a third-party logistics company specializing in dedicated and shared warehousing, transportation, and contract packaging.

MicroStrategy-based reporting capabilities provide Saddle Creek customers with greater levels of access and interaction with data in Saddle Creek's Warehouse Management System and Transportation Management System to improve inventory management, control costs, speed decision-making, and enhance customer service. The new reporting infrastructure allows customers to customize their individual reporting profile to fit their specific needs and requirements; drill across different sources of data; export reports in a variety of formats, including Excel, PDF, HTML and Flash; streamline reporting by consolidating reports; subscribe to automatic delivery of reports to one or more email inboxes according to customized schedules; email reports directly to one or more critical contacts; and access information online when it is convenient.

"Our customers have already noticed a significant difference in our reporting environment with MicroStrategy," said Woody Blaylock, Saddle Creek vice president of Information Systems. "MicroStrategy's easy to use information dashboards and robust analytics provide exciting new capabilities to help our customers make the critical decisions they need to make on a daily basis. In addition, we have been able to significantly compress the number of reports needed by as much as 70% with MicroStrategy."
