ADUSA, Inc. Announces New Version of It's Self-Service Software
New version expands functionality and introduces a new self-service portal
by Juan Perez, president and chief technology officer, Adusa, Inc.
Lombard, IL, December 15, 2004 – Adusa, Inc., a leading provider of retail self-service solutions, today
announced a new version of its flagship self-service software, which will now
be called S4g™ Strategic Self-Service Solutions for Grocery. The new software
incorporates many new enhancements to existing modules such as Deli, Wine, Beer
& Spirits, and Product Locator, while it also establishes the new Portal module
as the centerpiece of the suite.
“This new version of our software is really driven by the feedback that grocery retailers have given us over the past several years.” Said Juan C. Perez, President and Chief Technology Officer of adusa. “In that time, we have deployed our self-service software at many of the top supermarkets in the US and we’ve heard one consistent message from these companies - they want to supplement their own customer service with self-service technologies as much as possible, but want to do so with a coherent strategy, a standardized and attractively branded look for the customer, and a set of tools that do not involve too many different vendors.” S4g™ enables retailers to integrate best-of-breed components, such as adusa’s Deli, Wine/Beer/Spirits, and Product Locator modules, with homegrown applications, customer loyalty applications, and third-party vendor applications, all under the umbrella of the self-service portal. According to Perez, “This gives the retailer maximum deployment flexibility and the shopper maximum self-service capabilities.”
In addition to the new product version, adusa is also introducing a self-service implementation methodology named ASSIST™.
“From an implementation standpoint, self-service systems can be as demanding
as any enterprise system,” said Perez. “You have the traditional implementation/integration
issues to deal with, but you also have marketing and customer-facing issues
that really ultimately determine the system’s success in the store.” ASSIST™
is centered on a comprehensive checklist that has been compiled over the course
of numerous implementations. “We feel that ASSIST™ is really a must for the
project to be a complete success, from pilot to rollout.” said Perez.
S4G™ and ASSIST™ are both immediately available from adusa.
