Featured Customer
We tried to build an internal solution using a standard database tool, but it simply did not work. Not only did we struggle with scalability issues, but we also needed to cleanse and load the data ourselves, and we discovered it certainly was not trivial.[...] Going with Retail Solutions was the logical decision.

CPG Companies: IT
Retail Execution Management for the CPG IT Organization
Retailers have been sharing operational data for a long time and CPG companies have always been aware of its underlying potential in supporting operations, growing sales and improving availability. However, as data sharing programs have been designed by each retailer in isolation, without any industry standard, the resulting picture is a confusing hodge-podge of inconsistent data sets shared through highly variable mechanisms, ranging from web-based portals to EDI and from flat files sent by email to AS2 gateways.
To unlock the full potential benefits associated with this data and to enable associates throughout the company to leverage it, CPG company need to reconcile these inconsistent data sets into a single up-to-date, clean and harmonized database, a "Demand Signal Repository".
