Retail consultant RPE (Retail Process Engineering) has partnered with Business Intelligence solution provider Silvon Software, Inc.to bring a powerful, web-based business analysis software interface to retailers. Under the terms of the agreement, RPE will market Silvon's Viewer interface for Performance Analysis by IDEAS, a client-server BI application for JDA Software Group's Merchandise Management System.

"Viewer for IDEAS will empower our retail customers to easily deliver scorecards, dashboards and reports to executives, line-of-business managers, store managers and numerous other stakeholders across their value chains," said Rob Henneke, Executive Vice President at RPE. "We're pleased that Silvon has provided this mobile solution, which will further enhance the value that RPE offers to our retail clients."
"It's a pleasure for Silvon to team up with such a highly regarded consulting organization like RPE," said John Hughes, SVP Sales and Marketing at Silvon.

According to Hughes, the Viewer for Performance Analysis by IDEAS interface includes Portal and Reporting Services functionality, allowing customers to create business intelligence portals and custom reports out of the box without the need to invest in additional software. Another powerful feature of the interface is its Exception Management facility, which allows retailers to monitor and react proactively to various business conditions like poor performing locations, excessive shrink or void rates and end delivery performance below required levels.
