Denver, CO (PRWEB) April 23, 2007 -- Anthony Sansone, CIO for BlueSky Brands, in an exclusive interview with Ron Powell and the Business Intelligence Network (www.BeyeNETWORK.com), discusses how BlueSky Brands deployed Oco to create a set of common reports for use across the entire BlueSky Brands portfolio, providing actionable information for a fraction of the cost of traditional business intelligence solutions.
“Oco provided us with immediate standardization of operational reports across brands, regardless of the platform that the information systems ran on,” says Anthony Sansone, CIO, for BlueSky Brands, Inc. “The Oco solution gives us a 360-degree view that allows us to monitor general business health as well as providing us diagnostic capabilities to drill down below that level to uncover the root cause of problems and successes to drive performance improvements.”
“BlueSky Brands is a great example of a direct merchandising organization achieving synergies through brand acquisition, a trend we are seeing more and more in the retail sector,” says Ron Powell, Cofounder and Editorial Director of the Business Intelligence Network. “The Oco solution, with its rapid implementation, allows top management, line managers and other information workers, to see the same information in easy-to-use reports and business analytics.”
