Park City Group Initiates Second Supply Chain Profit Link Opportunity Evaluation This Month

October 23rd, 2008

Assessment to Uncover Improvements for In-Stock Positions and Assortment Planning  In Three Product Categories for 160+ Stores of Northeast-Based Grocery Retailer 

PARK CITY, Utah – October 23, 2008 – Park City Group, Inc. (OTCBB: PCYG), a developer of patented retail supply chain solutions and services, announced today that a Northeast grocery chain, a division of a global food retailing leader, has initiated a Supply Chain Profit Link (SCPL) opportunity identification program throughout its 160+ store chain. This latest SCPL evaluation comes on the heels on last week’s announced opportunity identification by a prominent northwest grocery retailer in 120+ stores in two product categories.

 

The SCPL service offering for perishable and non-perishable categories analyzes retail data and provides specific action steps to improve sales opportunities and cost saving measures not previously recognized by retailers and suppliers. Across categories, SCPL allows retailers and suppliers to view category and item-level product movement from a high-level corporate, division, region, store, department level, down to hourly increments allowing for unprecedented tracking and correction of store- and shelf-level issues.

 

During the 2-3 month pilot opportunity identification period, Park City Group will analyze inventory and sales data provided by the retailer, in the rotisserie chicken, ground beef and milk categories, and perform a detailed analysis using patented technology that results in identification of quantifiable areas.  Results of these engagements with other retailers have historically uncovered tens of millions of dollars in lost opportunities, including improvements to assortment/store clustering, increased service level and improvement in distribution voids. Subsequent subscription to the ongoing SCPL service builds upon the opportunity identification program and its analytic foundation, providing recommended specific action and ongoing steps that enable the retailer and its suppliers to capture millions of dollars of missed sales and profits.

 

“The ability to respond and react quickly to the changing needs of retail customers is a competitive advantage all retailers are looking for. Supply Chain Profit Link is that competitive advantage. It gives retailers an hour-by-hour view of sales, allowing them to base assortment planning and store clustering on actual item performance, and ensures the right item is on the shelf for the customers,” commented Randall K. Fields, Park City Group Chairman and CEO.

Park City Group Enhances ActionManager® Labor Technology System For a Leading Home Improvement Specialty Retailer

July 21st, 2008

PARK CITY, Utah, Jul 21, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) — Park City Group, Inc. (PCYG) , developer and marketer of patented computer software and consulting services which enable its retail customers to increase sales while reducing inventory and labor costs, today announced it has enhanced its ActionManager® labor technology system for an existing home improvement specialty retailer customer.

The national retailer is a long time user of the ActionManager labor management solution and had very specific requirements to be met in order to seamlessly migrate its business to a new technology infrastructure. The retailer required that the integration for all systems be ready simultaneously. Park City Group’s application consulting team upgraded and migrated its application and unique business rules to the retailer’s new technology platform. The Park City Group team successfully completed upgrades, systems testing and migration support for the customer in less than 45 days - without any impact to the customer’s information technology team.

Park City Group’s ActionManager tools have been used to schedule labor in hundreds of stores of this leading home improvement retailer.

Randall K. Fields, Chairman and CEO, said that, “Our ActionManager labor management solution has been a valuable tool, allowing this retailer to reduce costs and streamline and speed labor-related administrative processes. The need to transition to a new operating system was one of those unique opportunities for our technical staff to show how really good they are. The superior ability of our ActionManager suite of products to dramatically improve upon operational processes, including electronic paperwork, time and attendance, labor scheduling and business intelligence, allows us to continue to deliver on our promise to ensure that the retailer has the ‘Right People, Doing the Right Things, At the Right Time’.”

Park City Group either licenses ActionManager on a per store basis with annual maintenance based upon a percentage of the purchase price or, alternatively, sells it as a hosted subscription service (software as a service).
