"In a tight labor market and with increasingly complex requirements on distribution centers in all industries, our Supply Chain Execution team has seen increased demand for both operational and technical expertise to architect and integrate systems spanning warehouse and labor management with advanced automation,” said Joel Garcia, head of Spinnaker SCA's supply chain execution practice. “The Accelogix team strengthens our expertise in Blue Yonder supply chain execution systems critical to running many of these facilities and expands on our existing partnership with Blue Yonder."

Spinnaker SCA was formed in 2021 from the merger of SCApath and Spinnaker – with the latter firm’s roots dating back 20 years. The company’s more than 100 employees provide consulting and managed services in supply chain design and strategy, supply chain planning, supply chain execution, omnichannel fulfillment, and change management.

“We've built a strong and dedicated team that delivers solutions for our customers every day. So when considering a partner for our growth, values and culture were front of mind," said Accelogix CEO Seth Patin, who will join Spinnaker SCA as an advisor. "Working with Spinnaker SCA's leadership team to assess the impact of a merger on our customers, our team, and our companies and build a plan for the future has been a thoughtful process, and I could not be happier to join them in the next phase of our growth."
