Retail Solutions Inc. Once Again Named a Top Provider by Readers of Consumer Goods Technology Magazine

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Feb. 17, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Global retail analytics leader, Retail Solutions Inc. (RSi), has been named one of the top technology vendors for demand data analytics and retail execution by the readers of Consumer Goods Technology (CGT) magazine, the manufacturing industry's leading authority on business performance enabled by technology. RSi makes this list for a fifth year in the demand data analytics category and second year in the retail execution category, and has now been nominated for a total of ten consecutive years.

For the 16th year, CGT's readers recorded their votes for the consumer goods industry's preferred solution and service providers in 15 categories, which reflect the vast landscape of IT investment opportunities available today. The lists are determined by feedback from executives that work for consumer-goods companies of all sizes. The results and accompanying commentary from industry experts and analysts, guide business and IT decision makers in their quest to find the technology and service providers that are best suited to deliver a competitive edge in today's changing market.

"We are honored to once again be recognized by the readers of CGT as a top technology provider in both Demand Data Analytics and Retail Execution. RSi is one of the most innovative companies using demand data and has been pioneering many uses of that data to drive operational excellence," said Cedric Guyot, Chief Strategy Officer, RSi. "Retail Execution is one of the many areas on which we are working hand in hand with the top CPG companies, retailers and brokers. We hope that as we work with industry leaders to uncover even more data-driven opportunities, we'll get recognized in more categories in the years to come."

Unlike syndicated data providers in the category, RSi focuses on the entire enterprise, and supports supply chain, sales and marketing departments with a wide range of downstream data analytics daily, delivered via its cloud-based platform. As the survey points out, more and more, consumer goods companies are looking for software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions. As one of the first solution providers to take advantage of the cloud to drive differentiation, RSi is a popular choice and continues to take market share away from on-premise solutions.

RSi has also been listed in the retail execution category ever since it was first added to the CGT survey. By adopting a company-wide, systematic approach to retail execution, RSi's CPG customers turn downstream data into actionable retail execution insights. Every customer team is armed with the tools and best practices necessary to cut out-of-stocks by 25 percent, improve forecasting accuracy by 10 percent, find new efficiencies in promotion design, compliance and execution, and greatly increase new product introduction effectiveness.
