SeeCommerce Announces SeeMetrics Database to Capture Best-Practice Metrics for Supply Chain Performance


Pre-Built Metrics Deliver Unprecedented Ability to Implement Quickly and Easily and Standardize Continuous Improvement Process

PALO ALTO, Calif., March 18, 2002-SeeCommerce, a leading provider of supply chain performance management applications, today announced that it has created the SeeMetrics database, which captures practical key performance indicators (KPIs) from "real-world" implementations so that companies can quickly determine which metrics are most important to monitor to solve particular supply chain problems. The SeeMetrics database is the first database to consolidate practical metrics from a customer perspective; it complements the Supply Chain Council's SCOR model, which is not a database but rather a linkage between theoretical metrics.

By delivering a field-proven starting point (to get initial, rapid ROI) and then configuring additional metrics from there, the SeeMetrics database reduces the already short amount of time required for implementations and improves efficiency. SeeCommerce brings its customers leading applications, best practices, processes and metrics in typically less than 90 days, while relating those metrics across several business processes to develop best practices across the global supply chain. These captured metrics allow customers to identify the most critical business areas that need improving, understand why they need improving, and take action with SeeCommerce's solutions, based on their industry and function.

"Now more than ever before, companies are looking internally for ways to improve performance, and the supply chain provides a fertile ground for recovering lost revenues," said Paul Albright, president, CEO and chairman of SeeCommerce. "The SeeMetrics database, backed by SeeCommerce's years of supply chain expertise, implementation experience at industry-leading companies, and knowledge of best practices by industry, provides the best model for continuously improving performance."

As the SeeMetrics database is used in new implementations, SeeCommerce continues to work with its customers to incorporate feedback from all levels of the organization-from customer to supplier to CFO level to floor shop manager. The database allows SeeCommerce to quickly determine the KPIs and metrics necessary to measure, monitor and drive a customer's business to achieve corporate performance goals, dramatically reducing the time to return on investment (ROI).
