We are an ideal choice for retailers who want to deploy IBM's Retail Dynamic Warehouse tools - whether you want to build on and complement your existing Data Warehouse and Business Intelligence environment, or whether you want it to be a solution in its own right.

Giving you insights into customer behaviour

Ardenta is able to work with retailers as specialists in this area. We deliver systems with capabilities ranging from basket analysis, merchandise management to operational planning, business performance management, and more - enabling clear insights into customer behaviour, the availability of products at the right price, as well as product demand at both store level and by customer segment.

Successful retailers rely on IBM's Retail Data Warehouse tool

Boots, Littlewoods, Toys R Us, Safeway - and many others - are just some of the successful retailers who rely on IBM's Retail Data Warehouse solution.

The solution combines Business Intelligence with Business Objects, building on 20 years' experience of delivering to major retailers. The result? Market-leading reporting tools with market-leading data warehouse technology. The solution is highly scalable too: customers can start very small, safe in the knowledge that additional expansion will build on the original solution - with no 'rip and replace' necessary.
