Merced Systems Adds Analytics and Planning Capabilities to Sales Performance Management Solution

ORLANDO, Fla. and REDWOOD CITY, Calif., June 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Merced Systems, Inc., the leader in Sales Performance Management and Service Performance Management solutions, today announced two new offerings which broaden the company's Sales Performance Management solution. The company announced the release of a new Merced Intelligence module, Merced Sales Compensation Analytics, the SPM category's most advanced analytic application.

Sales Compensation Analytics enhances Merced Incentive Compensation Management's (Merced ICM) award-winning capabilities with a pre-packaged analytic application designed to deliver market-leading ad hoc query and analysis capabilities, and powerful data visualization for business users. This leads to rapid ROI for Sales and Compensation executives, managers, and analysts.

"We are excited about Merced Sales Compensation Analytics and its ability to push actionable data to the sales organization," said Andrea Marrow, Sr. Financial Analyst, ConvaTec, Inc. "The user experience and out-of-the box content make it easy for business users to quickly gain insight into sales and employee performance. It's easy to extend the application to include more dashboards, reports, and metrics to support our custom reporting/analysis needs."

Armed with a comprehensive and accurate view of sales performance data, sales and compensation professionals can now improve coordination across disparate sales channels, optimize product mixes, monitor commission spend, align payments with actual sales performance, measure the ROI and effectiveness of incentive compensation programs, and, ultimately, ensure that their organization is performing in accordance with company revenue and budget goals. With Merced Sales Compensation Analytics, sales and compensation professionals are able to better execute timely and targeted improvement to align with rapidly changing business conditions.

"Merced Sales Compensation Analytics allows our global 2000 customers to unlock the strategic value of their sales and commissions data to drive top line growth. This module extends our already broad SPM solution, making it the deepest in the category in sales analytics," said Mark Selcow, President of Merced Systems. "We're very confident that these latest additions to our Sales Performance Management Solution will help Merced continue to build our global footprint."
