• Is well positioned for the evolution into the connected portfolio intelligence platform category.
In May 2022 Verdantix established CPIPs as the next era of IWMS systems, delivering enhanced customer
value through insights derived from the Internet of Things (IoT) and advanced analytics (see Verdantix
Market Insight: The Transformation of IWMS To Connected Portfolio Intelligence Platforms (CPIP)). CPIP
solutions are cloud-connected platforms that offer a suite of modules and intelligently combine data from
multiple sources with advanced analytics. Tango is well placed to make the jump to CPIP due to its cloud-
based platform architecture, which is embedded with AI and ML models from day one. Tango's
acquisition of AgilQuest will further help it drive employee engagement and workflow optimization across
the hybrid workplace, which is a core value proposition of CPIP offerings.
