| The Ecometry multi-channel retail solution
provides retailers with an application that
tracks customers and orders. Data optimized
for customer and order transactions is rarely
the data that management, marketing, and
operations need to maximize business results. |
  |
| A MB Foster Data Mart opens up information
to the entire organization. Rather than
being locked away in silos, our Data Mart
standardizes how information is communicated
across your enterprise, operations, and
people. Information that enables your people
to add new lines of business, grow existing
business, and drive profitability, while
improving the customer experience. |
| |
| A MB Foster Ecometry Data Mart provides
a view of the data that gives insight into: |
- Marketing and selling trends, including
channel analysis by call center, web,
or dealers
- Campaign performance across catalog,
email, retail and other channels
- Optimizing shipping costs, warehousing,
and merchandising
- Historical analysis of corporate
performance and future performance forecasting
|
  |
Information needed to answer strategic
and critical management questions are
spread over many parts of the Ecometry
database. Not only are business reports
difficult to create, requiring programmers
to access many tables, the resulting queries
are a drain on the production system.
In the worst case, call center, web, and
employee access are all slowed down during
reporting queries. |
| |
  |
| To provide optimum application performance,
the MB Foster Ecometry Data Mart duplicates
data in real time to a Microsoft SQL Server
or ORACLE database and to MB Foster's Operational
Data Store. While the data is being duplicated
it is transformed and formatted into structured,
easy to use tables that are optimized to
provide the business reports you need in
the time frame you require for your business.
While some solutions provide batch duplicating
of data, our real-time technology insures
that your data mart is 100% in sync with
your Ecometry data. The MB Foster Ecometry
Data Mart uses our innovative UDA Series
technology - used by enterprises around
the globe to reliably satisfy millions of
transaction requests each and every day. |

  |
| We work with your business and IT teams
to design a Data Mart that exactly matches
your business and user access needs. Whether
it is adjusting to your busiest season or
understanding the critical SKUs that mark
your business success, we talk the language
of retail and Ecometry. Unlike some solutions,
a MB Foster Data Mart will deliver results
in weeks, not months or years and does not
require you to purchase expensive third-party
software in order to produce the reports
you need. |
