PFSweb to Provide Fulfillment and Transportation Management Services for Brillian Corporation's High-Definition Televisions
Brillian Corporation has contracted PFSweb, Inc., a global provider of BPO solutions to provide supply-chain support for its new generation of high-definition, rear-projection televisions -- Brillian's Gen II liquid-crystal-on silicon (LCOS) technology.
PLANO, TX (PRWEB) August 11, 2004 –– Brillian Corporation (Nasdaq: BRLC) of
Tempe, Ariz., a pioneering developer of HDTVs, has selected PFSweb, Inc.
(Nasdaq: PFSW), a global provider of integrated business process outsourcing
(BPO) solutions, to provide supply-chain support for its new generation of
high-definition, rear-projection televisions.
Leveraging its Gen II
liquid-crystal-on-silicon (LCoS™) technology, Brillian produces large-screen
HDTVs for leading consumer electronics OEM customers. Brillian also develops a
family of microdisplay components and subsystems that OEMs integrate into
proprietary HDTV products, multimedia projectors and near-to-eye devices such as
monocular and binocular headsets.
Under terms of the agreement, PFSweb,
of Plano, Texas will provide warehousing, fulfillment and transportation
management services from its Memphis, Tenn. distribution facility to Brillian's
North American retailers. The company's new 65-inch HDTVs are planned to begin
shipping to a major international retailer in the third quarter of 2004.
PFSweb will deploy its EntenteMessageSM application, a file delivery
solution using batch processes to support clients using warehousing and
distribution facilities, to process Brillian's EDI transactions. Management
reporting to Brillian will be accomplished through PFSweb's enhanced
browser-based reporting package.
"In evaluating the final cut of four
competitors, PFSweb was #1 or #2 in most everything we reviewed, including
number and quality of services, turnkey culture and scope of collaboration, as
well as financial solvency and client references," said John Ware, Brillian's
director of supply chain management. "Moreover, there seemed to be a personal
touch with PFSweb that we didn't find with others."
"We're pleased to see
that PFSweb continues to win 'the hearts and minds' of our prospects and
customers by putting in place the right combination of people, processes,
systems, controls and procedures," said Mark Layton, senior partner and chief
executive officer of PFSweb. "We look forward to helping Brillian achieve
'best-in-class' efficiencies in their supply chain
operations."
Known as the "brand behind the
brand," PFSweb provides seamless, transparent supply-chain management for its
