Introduced and debuted in New York City at this week's National Retail Federation Show, PCMS's Vision InSight analytics module offers global retail organizations the power to rapidly and accurately analyze the information required to "Run Retail Operations."

PCMS has leveraged industry-leading business intelligence technology from Cognos, to provide retailers and store managers with powerful reporting and OLAP analysis through easy access to timely and accurate information.

"This new solution gets senior technology, business and finance executives on the same page," said Chris Belk, CEO of PCMS North America. "With VISION InSight we can provide organizations with a graphically appealing view into their store environment, balancing business and IT performance based on a single, fact-based version of the truth. This is fundamental to running the business of any organization regardless of retail sector."

Retailers will now have the answers they need to make informed and more effective business decisions. Key capabilities include drag-and-drop authoring incorporating data, text, charts, graphs, and images; automatic calculations; easily configured standard reports through prompts and toolbar commands; and personalized report bursting to multiple locations in multiple formats. These easy-to-use capabilities complement PCMS's existing retail portfolio, further enhancing its return on investment.
