LAKE FOREST, Calif., Sept. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Nexiant, a leading provider of management solutions for the indirect materials supply chain, today announced that it has appointed Vince Sheeran as its chief executive officer.
"Nexiant is poised for growth, and Vince is the ideal executive to take this company forward," said Dan Raynor, managing partner and co-founder of The Argentum Group, and Nexiant board member. "Vince is an energetic leader who works with his customers to achieve real ROI from their business process improvement initiatives. We are excited to have him leading the way and expanding the Nexiant vision for the indirect materials supply chain."
Vince Sheeran has over 30 years of experience in the software and business services industries and has built global organizations through both acquisition and organic growth.
At Epicor Software Corporation, a global leader delivering business software solutions to the manufacturing, distribution, retail and services industries, Vince held multiple positions, including vice president and general manager of the Clientele division, vice president of marketing, and senior vice president of worldwide sales and operations.
Vince subsequently served as the president and chief executive officer of UltraLink, Inc., where he was responsible for transforming the business into a well-respected benefits and human resource services provider for customers such as American Airlines, AT&T, Dow Chemical and IBM. As chief executive of Wherify Wireless, Vince was responsible for overhauling the product strategy and building a new software platform.
"I have worked with the industrial sector for most of my career, and in my view the indirect materials supply chain has been largely ignored," said Vince Sheeran. "Nexiant 8 will enable our customers to fill that void, and I am looking forward to the tremendous opportunity it represents for Nexiant and our partners."
Nexiant 8 is a cloud-based supply chain solution that increases indirect material visibility, simplifies processes and drives substantial inventory reductions. It connects industrial distributors with their customers, and integrates technology across the supply chain from the shop-floor and storeroom to eCommerce platforms and ERP. The cloud-based model allows rapid implementation and scaling because no hardware or software is required at customer sites, and ongoing management and support is provided by Nexiant.
