MicroStrategy Incorporated, the provider of business intelligence software, says the Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) has expanded its deployment of the MicroStrategy Business Intelligence Platform for enhanced supply chain operations.
MicroStrategy points out that the LCBO is the largest single purchaser of beverage alcohol in the world, purchasing fine wines, spirits and beer from more than 60 countries for Ontario consumers and licensees. Through its integrated distribution and retail network, over 6,500 quality products are available in some 600 LCBO retail stores across Ontario.
Through MicroStrategy, says the vendor, the “LCBO is successfully providing its end users with insight into supply chain operations. A wide range of LCBO staff, including category managers, inventory managers and financial analysts, use MicroStrategy to help analyze daily sales transactions, inventory, financial and shipment data.”
“We've experienced tremendous success with the MicroStrategy platform," said LCBO's Director of IT Tom Stanley. "It has enabled us to gain vital new intelligence from our data and to extend that insight to far more employees, suppliers and stores - helping them make more proactive decisions for more efficient operations."
"Our expanding relationship with LCBO is a testament to MicroStrategy's leadership as an industrial-strength, trusted business intelligence solution," said MicroStrategy's COO Sanju K. Bansal. "We continue to perform well in the retail market with seven of the top ten global retailers using MicroStrategy to improve store operations and harness applications like merchandise management, loss prevention and market-basket analysis."
