American Marconi Wireless News - ToolsGroup Partners with Levapan to Accelerate Digital Transformation in Supply Chain Planning for Consumer Goods, Bakery Raw Materials, and Bio-Ingredients

BOGOTÁ, COLOMBIA AND BOSTON, MA / ACCESS Newswire / February 17, 2026 / ToolsGroup, a global leader in supply chain planning and optimization software, today announced its partnership with Levapan, a prominent multilatina company and a leader in the Latin American food industry. This collaboration marks a pivotal step in Levapan's digital transformation, modernizing and automating its supply chain planning across Colombia, Ecuador, and the Dominican Republic. The initiative aims to shift Levapan from spreadsheet-based processes to proactive, data-driven decision-making, ensuring optimized inventory, enhanced service levels, and full visibility across its operations.

As part of the partnership, Levapan implemented the full ToolsGroup SO99+ suite, including Demand Planning, Demand Collaboration Hub (DCH), Inventory Optimization (MEIO), and Replenishment. The platform provides planners with actionable, real-time insights to improve forecast accuracy, right-size inventory, and make faster, data-driven decisions-critical for supporting Levapan's vision to double sales in the next five years and ensure structured, sustainable growth.

Levapan's primary objectives include improving forecast accuracy, increasing service levels, reducing inventories, and minimizing planners' manual workload. With SO99+, Levapan will move from reacting to supply chain challenges to proactively anticipating them, using probabilistic forecasting and service-driven inventory optimization to continuously balance demand and supply. This enables teams to make faster, more confident decisions based on reliable, real-time insights while reducing manual effort and improving cross-functional alignment.

"SO99+ is not just a tool; it's a new way of working, a new way to connect teams and support decisions with real, reliable, and real-time data," said Carlos Daniel Ortiz Aponte, Levapan's Planning Manager.

"We're excited to support Levapan on this transformative journey," said Sean Elliott, ToolsGroup's CEO. "With an always-running decision layer that continuously senses and adapts in real time, we've helped Levapan keep demand, supply, and service in balance as conditions change-ensuring they stay on course and deliver on their promises."
