In May during the enVISION2002 annual user conference, Manugistics Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: MANU), one of the leading global supply chain management (SCM) software providers, announced it had acquired the assets and business of privately-held ERP provider Western Data Systems (WDS), www.westdata.com, with headquarters in Calabasas, CA, and with over 20 years of presence in the Defense industry providing plant-level transaction execution for manufacturing and Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) operations. The acquisition has a potential to create one of the largest Aerospace and Defense (A&D) installed client bases in the industry, and to enhance a strong solution set for optimizing the complex Service and Parts Management (S&PM) processes of these asset-intensive organizations. WDS, with revenues last year of $28 million, is a prominent provider of application software and services to A&D organizations, with more than 135 organizations and 33,000 concurrent users worldwide.
