Founder’s Story
Audrey Walby, founder and president, has an extensive career as a planner, manager and merchant. She found the lack of an appropriate and accurate forecasting tool that was desperately needed at the time. So, twenty some years ago, Audrey went to work at developing one herself. She was self-taught in the coding needed to compile the masterpiece of a forecasting solution she called [basic-code]™. The application was used throughout her career in various positions and companies. At every installation it proved to deliver success in financial metrics such as: increased sales, improved profit, better inventory costs and turn. Not to mention, happy planners!
Today, the application has been transformed and updated to a web-based SaaS platform now renamed SAFIO Solutions. As the leader of SAFIO Solutions, Audrey is committed to delivering a best in class product. Superior to those of competitors because it was built with the intuitiveness of the planner mindset. By offering up SAFIO Solutions to planners alike, Audrey’s goal is to help those in need; to free them of cumbersome spreadsheets and systems and time-consuming manual tasks. Therefore giving them the freedom and confidence to do what they were trained to do – forecast! And accurately.
The team at SAFIO Solutions have used the Forecasting Tool in their many career positions and been the beneficiaries of great results by using the tool. This is what compels the team to provide this same real value to other customers and companies.
