Since its founding in 1981, Smart Software has been a leading provider of demand planning, forecasting, and inventory optimization solutions and is now part of Epicor Software. Our Inventory Planning and Optimization Platform helps our customers utilize their corporate data, including sales history, demand signals, supplier transactions, and more, to better forecast demand, optimize inventory stocking requirements, and identify opportunities to improve operational efficiency. Hundreds of leading organizations around the globe, as well as many mid- and small-market enterprises, use our solutions to improve forecast accuracy and optimize inventory levels. Our mission is to provide innovative analytical solutions that help our customers maximize sales and minimize inventory costs through improved demand forecasting and inventory planning. Our success is built on continuous innovation. We pioneered the use of automatic demand forecasting utilizing statistical methods and developed a patented APICS award-winning method for intermittent demand forecasting. Both innovations continue to yield major inventory cost reductions and service level improvements for our customers. The product that has evolved to today’s Smart IP&O cloud platform harnesses probabilistic forecast modeling and collaborative planning. It delivers, we believe, the most innovative and easiest-to-use inventory planning and forecasting system in the marketplace.

DI is the premiere source for consumer electronics accessories that make daily life easier, more productive and more enjoyable. While other accessories manufacturers put their time and money into copying each others' products, we put ours into understanding the big and small issues facing consumers, and inventing clever but simple solutions to these problems. This spirit of innovation has allowed us to develop and market patented and industry-leading products for screen cleaning (ScreenDr®), tangle-free earbud/headphone storage (The Nest™), laser lens cleaning (CleanDr® featuring Zero Clearance™ Technology), radiation-shielded laptop desks (LapGuard™), and optical disc repair (SkipDr®). We market these products through some of the largest retailers in the U.S. and have sold almost ten million units of our original product, SkipDr, making it arguably the most successful consumer electronic accessory in history…at least until it's surpassed by ScreenDr, The Nest, or something else we'll surely invent as new technologies, and their attendant problems, continue to emerge.
