Supply-Chain Management and Loss Prevention Technologies Bolstered
DAYTON, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 18, 2007--Publix Super Markets, Inc., the country's largest employee-owned supermarket chain, has expanded its data warehouse from Teradata, a division of NCR Corporation (NYSE:NCR). This expansion will support critical analysis that will be used to improve Publix's retail operations. The move brings the Teradata data warehouse out of the traditional decision-support realm at the $21.7 billion company and into supporting day-to-day tactical operations decisions.
The expansion, which includes new Teradata 5500 servers running robust Teradata data-mining software and new Teradata data warehouse support technology, enables Publix to more thoroughly understand its operations. By providing detailed historical and current information, associates can then optimize their business decisions.
"The Publix brand is built on industry-leading customer satisfaction that it has earned through quality products and best-in-class service. Publix is well on its way to having one of the premier data warehouses in the supermarket industry with actionable and timely information for business users, which is critical in the highly competitive supermarket business," said Rob Berman, vice president of Retail Solutions for Teradata.
