Supply chain network design software innovator, Optilogic, has launched the Frogger Pond supply chain design community, the premier online destination for supply chain design practitioners to share best practices, connect with peers, and provide product feedback. Frogger Pond is accessible via the award-winning cloud-native supply chain network design app Cosmic Frog.
Intentional supply chain design is more critical than ever before. With growing potential for both disruption and optimization, Optilogic saw a need for a centralized online hub where experts could come together to solve problems, share insights, evolve teams, and develop practical solutions for issues facing the supply chain.
The Optilogic Frogger Pond community offers five ways for users to get involved:
- Provide Product Feedback: Users can share their ideas and suggestions on how to improve Optilogic software and vote ideas to the top, giving users a voice in strategic product decisions.
- Gain Career-Building Modeling Skills: Community allows both seasoned and emerging supply chain design professionals to learn from their peers, explore new perspectives, and gain best-practices from supply chain design modeling and product experts. Users can receive help and feedback on models to improve their results.
- Market Your Skills, Hire Design Talent, or Find Your Next Position: Post new work or project opportunities to a qualified, like-minded talent pool in the Frogger Pond Marketplace, which streamlines the hiring process and creates a space to offer great work products like tailored workflows and even apps. Marketplace is accessible only by Professional account holders.
- Learn Cosmic Frog Tips and Tricks: Access a continuously growing library of shortcuts, optimization tips, and helpful guides that speed the learning process and time to value. The more users contribute, the more badges they earn, including the “Top Frogger” ultimate recognition.
- Find Your Tribe: In the Frogger Pond general discussion area users can post forum questions, create groups and subset groups, and engage with other design professionals on any topic.
“The Frogger Pond Community is a great addition to Optilogic’s suite of tools. For developers, it is a practical way to get answers to technical questions and to share modeling best practices,” said Graham Billey, Data Scientist at Peco Pallet. “The Optilogic support staff are very active in the community and posting is a great way to interact with many different members of their team.”
Optilogic Vice President of Product Management Rebecca Janowiak believes the community will be a critical catalyst for resilient networks. “Our supply chain design community is more than just a group of professionals; it’s a dynamic network of innovators and problem solvers. By sharing knowledge and collaborating, we have the power to shape the future of supply chain design and create a more sustainable and resilient global economy.”
“My favorite feature of the community is the “product feedback” section,” added Billey. “Here users can suggest enhancements to the platform, as well as make comments on other posts and upvote requests they would like to see implemented. I’ve seen requests made here actually get implemented into the platform, highlighting the Optilogic team’s engagement with their users.”
