DemandTec Delivers Analytics Application For Demand Based Management

SAN CARLOS, Calif. – May 2, 2003 - DemandTec Inc., the leading provider of Demand Based Management (DBM) software for price and promotion optimization, announced today the introduction of a powerful new business analysis application for DBM, DemandTec Analytics™. DemandTec Analytics supports performance forecasting and tracking to drive profitability and increased marketshare, for both retailers and manufacturers.

DemandTec Analytics helps to effectively manage brands, categories and product assortment. The web-based dashboard provides at-a-glance displays that show the status of business metrics with easy to understand interfaces, such as interactive charts, allowing business managers to be notified when to take action. For example, category managers can identify shifts in category mix and asses their financial impact, allowing for better management of the overall product mix.

DemandTec Analytics, part of the DemandTec 3 Platform, is based on an advanced analytics architecture that delivers leading edge performance and scalability. This flexible tool directly accesses and analyzes the consolidated and cleansed data stored within the DemandTec 3 Platform. DemandTec Analytics provides powerful analytic capabilities and presents a single, unified view of information through a web-based dashboard, easily accessible within the same applications used to generate prices and promotions.

DemandTec Analytics is extensible and customizable, leveraging leading edge analysis and reporting tools to create interactive graphs and generate spreadsheets within Microsoft Excel.

"To make the most informed business decisions, retailers need to take into account competitive position, financial goals, and the impact of external factors," said Dan Fishback, president and CEO of DemandTec. "DemandTec has been providing retailers with business-critical forecasting and optimization for pricing and promotion that is directly impacting their bottom line.
