by Steve McVey
Jan 1, 2000 Abstract : In the increasingly competitive supply chain management marketplace, corporations either advance or are trodden underfoot. Descartes' acquisitions over the last few years demonstrate that its management is committed to establishing a dominant position in the Internet fulfillment and collaboration software market. In spite of recent losses, Descartes has the potential to pose serious competition for other vendors in the e-fulfillment market, such as SAP, i2, and Oracle. Success will depend primarily on Descartes ability to put its bold vision to work.

by Steve McVey
Dec 1, 1999 Abstract : Descartes Systems Group recently announced its financial results for the third quarter ended October 31, 1999. Revenues were $10.5 million, an increase of 7% over last quarter, but a decrease of 16% from the same period last year. Descartes attributes the renewed revenue growth to its successful evolution into a provider of customer fulfillment network optimization software. In contrast to its revenues, Descartes posted a net loss of $4 million, suggesting that it has not yet fully recovered from an acquisition spree in 1997 and 1998.
