Tesco has reformatted its
legacy supply chain software using tools from
Micro Focus
to enable it to run in the US, where it launches later this
year.
The tools will enable Tesco to enhance its Continuous
Replenishment application to run on both IBM mainframes and IBM
System p AIX servers. This will allow Tesco to maintain a single
set of source code for both the mainframe and Unix versions of the
application.
In an interview with Computer Weekly, Tesco group IT director
Colin Cobain said the application was important because it would
allow the retailer to leverage its existing mainframe application
worldwide.
