Blue Yonder wins top Snowflake award for supply chain AI
Blue Yonder has been named the 2025 Retail & Consumer Goods Data Cloud Product Partner of the Year by Snowflake.
Blue Yonder was awarded this recognition for its contributions as part of the Snowflake AI Data Cloud ecosystem, collaborating to help customers unify data from various sources and enhance decision-making processes.
The partnership between the two companies enables Blue Yonder to incorporate Snowflake's data management capabilities into the Blue Yonder Platform. This integration provides customers with real-time access to data, aiming to allow for faster and higher-quality decisions across supply chain operations.
According to the two companies, one of the central benefits of this partnership is the ability to perform simultaneous execution of thousands of supply chain scenarios, by leveraging machine learning technology within a unified platform environment. This approach is designed to lower costs, minimise complexity, and reduce the time typically required by conventional supply chain marketplaces.
Partnership achievements
The companies note that seamless data sharing and collaboration are key aspects of the solution, intending to bring together internal and external data sources for a consolidated view. This foundation is meant to help businesses respond more rapidly to dynamic market demands.
Chris Burchett, Senior Vice President, Generative AI, Blue Yonder, outlined the relationship between the two companies and its impact on customers.
"By combining our advanced supply chain technology with Snowflake's robust data management capabilities, we deliver true end-to-end supply chain solutions that enhance performance, scalability and resilience for our shared customers," said Chris Burchett, Senior Vice President, Generative AI, Blue Yonder. "We're honored to receive this prestigious award for the fourth year in a row and are excited to continue our collaboration with Snowflake to provide innovative solutions and transformative results for retailers, manufacturers and logistics service providers worldwide."
This marks the fourth consecutive year that Blue Yonder has received a partner award from Snowflake.
