Our Commitment to You

It is our sincere hope that by bringing this low-cost solution to the marketplace, we can build a large community of users like you. As the community grows, we will provide continual improvements and more capabilities within ClarityRetail for the benefit of all those who use the service.

We want to help you compete more effectively. Whether you are a small niche retailer or a large integrated retailer in diverse markets, we want to help you compete effectively against the biggest retailer in the world, Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart's IT budget per year is greater than that of many countries in the world. What are they getting for all that expense? Their goal is simple: The best integrated Supply Chain Management system in the world... and they are spending hundreds of millions to build and maintain it. Our goal is to give you at least some of the capabilities they have at a tiny fraction of the price.

Provided we continue to expand the user community with people just like you, there are no limits to what is possible. Some of the objectives we have in mind besides continually improving and expanding the analytical reports available are improvements in overall supply chain efficiency. The first step is to expand the tool to be able to handle Ordering by implementing the relationship between the Order Code and the Sellable Product code. With this, we will be able to aggregate demand from groups of stores or entire divisions so that an order recommendation can now be made.

To get there, we need your support. By signing up for ClarityRetail today, you will become part of the user community using our service and through this incremental growth, we can fund our ongoing development enabling us to continue providing you with expanded benefits at the lowest price possible.

 

CEO's Message

Dear Friend,

Since 1987, Invatron has committed to supplying you with the very best in retail technology solutions. Our customers have rewarded us with their confidence and trust as demonstrated by our Technology Solutions being deployed in over 14,000 locations globally with hundreds of retailers. We continue to initiate new strategic directions to broaden and deepen our Product Suite. Let me share with you my personal excitement for these developments the latest of which is ClarityRetail.

We have always defined ourselves by seeking to solve specific problems for retailers that had not been addressed by other technology providers. The first challenge we tackled was multiple vendor Weigh-Scale Management for the grocery segment. This continues to be one of the cornerstones of our business today. We are constantly investing to improve the quality of our entire Scale Management Suite, including ScaleLink, PLUM and ePLUM. This ensures that the data highway to all of your in-store weighing and labelling equipment continues to function smoothly.

I am equally enthusiastic about our Operations Intelligence product, PeriScope. This Decision Support System (DSS) combines inventory control with demand-based sales forecasting to recommend store production and scheduling requirements. It helps retailers reduce shrink by 2 or 3%, while improving stock conditions at the same time. This gives PeriScope the potential for very rapid payback as has been borne out in each deployment we have done. If ePLUM is our data highway, then PeriScope is our eye-in-the-sky traffic reporter, providing alerts based on traffic flow and advising retailers of the most efficient route to reach performance goals in terms of production and ordering.

To continue, I am personally championing our solution in the couponing and media space. PCM stands for Promotional Content Manager. Why not issue targeted promotions at point-of-scale, based on unique scale event detail, before the customer checks out? We started our Fresh Media Solutions business unit to do just that. The CPG community now has a low-cost, efficient and effective solution to reach the customer with targeted promotions while they are in the early phases of their shopping experience. To learn more, check out freshmediasolutions.com.

Invatron has the know-how to help retailers reward their loyal customers, generate cross-sell and move higher margin product. Our PCM solution is equivalent to 'intelligent' billboard advertising, responding to traffic flow in order to deliver the 'right' promotion at the 'right' time. This will be a welcome addition to our Suite of Fresh Technology Solutions, maximizing promotions-driven revenue for food retailers.

Invatron has revolutionized fresh food operations throughout the world with centralized weigh-scale data management, fresh item and inventory management and in-store customer messaging. In the process, we generated substantial increases in fresh sales and profitability for our customers.

Now entering our third decade of innovation, I am pleased to announce our most recent endeavour, ClarityRetail, the very first commercially available demand forecasting service specifically designed for retailers. There are other forecasting solutions that cater to multiple industries but none that embody the insights needed to address the specific demands of retailers and the challenges they face with ordering and replenishment. Also, ours is delivered in an SaaS model requiring no computing infrastructure on the part of the retailer. You send us your data and we send back the demand forecast to you by store and item. For more information about this exciting new offering, please check out ClarityRetail.com.

Whether you are an existing customer or business partner of ours or are hearing of us for the first time and are coming up to speed on our offerings, I invite you to peruse our sites starting with invatron.com. We hope to be able to continue serving our existing customers and gain new ones as we enter into our twenty-third year of operation.
