Our Full Line of Analytic Products

EIS has isolated some of the essential components of Profit InSight and developed them as stand-alone analytic tools for specific applications. We’ve also developed a number of new InSight modules, which integrate seamlessly with Profit InSight and our other products.

All EIS products are designed to reduce the amount of time our clients spend collecting and analyzing data, and maximize effective execution time. Our clients’ requirements, experience, input and feedback help us design everything we build; and we constantly update and improve our program designs to increase value to you.
 
EIS staff handles implementation of the individual InSight modules, and trains your staff responsible for ongoing use. The basic process is the same as that for Profit InSight, but generally of shorter duration.

All of our tools incorporate our proprietary data filters that prevent bad data from entering the systems, as well as our clear and simple user interface methodologies.

Our flagship product includes our Forecast InSight, Performance InSight and Budget InSight modules, and integrates seamlessly with all of our other stand-alone analytics. Visit our Profit InSight pages for more information >

The commodity manufacturing business routinely, if not always, requires multiple pricing strategies for different markets and even within markets.  The process of determining the price changes and/or new pricing for a requested product is normally very labor and personnel intensive, which wastes time and introduces costly errors.  Pricing InSight uses advanced modeling techniques, augmented by rules you’ve introduced to the system, to allow sales personnel to quickly and accurately develop their own initial estimates.  Once customer criteria match your pre-set parameters, final pricing proposals are literally a manager’s mouse click away.

• Handles thousands of rules and variables in seconds
• Pricing strategies can be input across the product lines, markets, or customers
• Pricing can be fed directly to accounts receivable for invoicing
• Promotional pricing can be established and activated or stored for later use
• Labor applied to previous pricing management efforts can be reapplied to other needs
