Group, the company developed an analytics-based solution called SkyPAD that provides a weekly report of key business metrics via a web-based dashboard.The dashboard enables improved decision making across product pricing, assortment design, production and distribution. Using the system, Chaus can quickly spot fast selling items, shift products between stores, adjust pricing and make in-season adjustments based on proven consumer demand.Chaus also has the capability to instantly compare profit margins across different retail outlets to identify future brand positioning strategies. Business analytics technology provides tremendous value, especially as we look to expand our global operations.Although merchandise has been already produced for the holiday season, both suppliers and retailers are able to harness the power of business intelligence to get our products off the retail floor faster. In fact, SkyPAD has become as mission critical as our Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, and in some cases, even more so.Built on Sky IT Group's business intelligence platform and using IBM DB2 software and BladeCenter servers, the solution has helped transform Bernard Chaus into a forward-looking, intelligent and connected enterprise. SkyPAD's predictive analytics features help Bernard Chaus more accurately determine production schedules based on projections and initial sales in season.Bernard Chaus also plans to integrate all of its company data and link to overseas manufacturing facilities in order to create a comprehensive view of the entire supply chain down to the actual cutting of piece goods. By extending the technology throughout the company's operations, Bernard Chaus aims to decrease production lag time and more quickly adjust its cutting plans to sales trends."Real-time insights are helping Bernard Chaus keep its finger on the pulse of the fast moving, fashion industry," said Andy Monshaw, general manager of IBM's midmarket business. "IBM <a href="http://www.exam1pass.com/000-539-exam.html" target="_blank">000-539 </a>is focused on providing clients with higher value capabilities that help them transform how they develop products, support customers and innovate in the markets in which they compete."</blockquote>
