"By turning the spotlight onto these outstanding Practitioner 'Pros to Know', we are not only recognizing their accomplishments but also offering them as role models for other executives looking to take their own organizations to a higher, more strategic level within the enterprise," said Andrew K. Reese, editor-in-chief of Supply & Demand Chain Executive magazine. "We selected Mr. Lyle because he has demonstrated how businesses can work hand-in-hand with suppliers to improve quality to ensure the overall success of the supply chain. His solution of providing business with real-time visibility into supplier quality data will dynamically affect the supply chain world."

In the seventh annual "Pros to Know" feature, the magazine highlighted the business leaders who are driving the transformation initiatives and achieving the successes to help the supply chain earn recognition as a true strategic partner to the business. Other professionals joining Lyle on this prestigious list included Eugene McCabe, Executive Vice President for Sun Microsystems, Jean Baderschneider, Vice President for ExxonMobil, and Karl Braitberg, Senior Director of Global Demand Management for Cisco Systems.

With eSPC, InfinityQS pioneered the application of real-time SPC across multiple suppliers using the Software as a Service (SaaS) model. The SaaS model allows each supplier to enter live shop floor quality data into a secure, centralized database without any additional investment in IT infrastructure. This collaborative technology helps customers work with their suppliers on improving product quality during production.

"Being named as one of the 2007 'Pros to Know' in the supply chain management field reaffirms the decision InfinityQS made six years ago to develop a comprehensive solution for managing supply chain quality in real-time," said Lyle. "Manufacturers are now using eSPC to scientifically improve quality, increase efficiencies and reduce costs throughout their global supply chain. These manufacturers are realizing ROIs that can be measured in weeks, not months or years."
