Devender Chauhan is a Optimization and Operations Research expert at Blue Yonder. Colleagues describe them as "Devender has done an excellent job developing and enhancing i2/JDA's Supply Chain Planner's LPOPT optimization solver. He holds a patent for developing the campaign planning algorithm for LPOPT. He has worked tirelessly behind the scenes and has added tremendous value to i2/JDA's SCP customers. He has supported many consultants with prompt and insightful responses to their queries. It has been a pleasure and a privilige to work with Devender." and "Devender and I studied together in the Operations Research program at North Carolina State University. He possessed that special skill that IITans all over cherish namely the skill to take esoteric things and make them mundane. He was a star in our batch for being the only person to score a 4.33 GPA. I still look upto Devender as one of the smartest people I have had a chance to work with. I wish him success in all his future endeavors."
