GT Nexus
A cloud supply chain platform, provides logistics management solutions, data services and web services for trade communities
About GT Nexus
GT Nexus, now operating as Infor Nexus, was established in 1998 under the name Tradiant by founders Aaron Sasson, John Urban, Greg Johnsen, and Anil Nair. The company originated with the objective of creating a centralized, cloud-based collaboration platform to address inefficiencies in the global trade and logistics industry. A significant milestone was its 2013 merger with TradeCard, a company founded by Kurt Cavano that specialized in streamlining financial transactions in supply chains. This merger was pivotal, creating a comprehensive procure-to-pay solution and positioning the combined entity as a market leader in cloud-based supply chain management. The company's growth trajectory culminated in its acquisition by Infor, an enterprise software firm, for $675 million in September 2015. In 2019, GT Nexus was rebranded as Infor Nexus, integrating its capabilities into Infor's broader CloudSuite offerings.
Read full description
The business operates a multi-enterprise supply chain network delivered on a subscription-based, software-as-a-service (SaaS) model. This platform connects manufacturers, retailers, logistics providers, financial institutions, and suppliers, enabling them to manage and automate global trade processes. It serves a diverse client base across industries such as retail, apparel, automotive, pharmaceuticals, and high-tech, including major corporations like Adidas, Caterpillar, The Home Depot, and Procter & Gamble. By providing a single, shared view of orders and shipments, the network facilitates collaboration and data sharing among all partners. Revenue is generated through subscriptions to its platform, which at the time of its acquisition, managed over $100 billion in goods annually.
The core offering is a cloud-based global commerce platform that provides end-to-end visibility and control over supply chain operations. Key product modules include Supply Chain Visibility, Transportation Management, Inventory Management, Procure-to-Pay, and Supply Chain Finance. The platform provides a single control layer to monitor the entire lifecycle of transportation and offers performance analytics for enhanced control. A distinguishing feature is the fusion of the physical and financial supply chains, allowing for the coordination of goods flow, information, and payments within one system. For example, the Cash Flow Manager feature gives suppliers a consolidated view of approved invoices and allows them to request early payments at optimized rates, thereby improving working capital for all parties. The network architecture ensures that all participants operate from a single, real-time source of information, which helps in optimizing inventory, reducing operational costs, and improving responsiveness to market changes.
