No Comments

READING, PA (July 5, 2017) - Fortna®, The Distribution Experts®, announced today two changes that will drive innovation and improve customer service.

Nikko Pianetto has been promoted to the role of Executive Vice President. In this role, he will lead the global services organization that manages all of Fortna's service offerings that are involved in turning a companies' distribution operations into a competitive advantage.

Previously, Pianetto led the global software development team responsible for FortnaWCS™ and FortnaWES™ - Warehouse Control and Warehouse Execution Systems - the sophisticated warehouse systems that power high performance distribution operations, like the kind needed for eCommerce. In addition, Nikko also played an integral role in opening an innovation hub in Hanoi, Vietnam to continue to advance Fortna's capabilities in design, analytics and software.

Will King has been promoted to Pianetto's former role as GVP, Integrated Technology Solutions. In this role he will continue to build out the Engineering and Implementation Services critical to delivering quality solutions to Fortna clients. He will also lead the expansion of Fortna's Client Lifetime Protection services, an essential part of keeping today's "always on" distribution operations performing at peak. This includes helping clients with a comprehensive support strategy that goes beyond a number to call when there are issues. It also includes taking a long-term view and creating a roadmap to ensure operations will perform in the future, meet the ROI that was promised, and stay current with business and technical changes.

"Nikko and Will are innovative thought leaders who know how to build strong teams", said John White, president and CEO of Fortna. "With their leadership, we will continue to help companies transition to new distribution models to support today's more diverse and fast-paced business environment."
