Market research suggests we are in the midst of a 12-month period where more than three quarters (78 percent) of companies plan on increasing their use of cloud services for business intelligence and data management.[1]
By that metric, Quantworks is way ahead of the game—and reaping the business benefits as a result.
Quantworks’ clients are a collection of name brand retailers, manufacturers and start-ups in the worlds of retail and consumer packaged goods apparel. While those clients bring different products and services to market, they enjoy a striking similarity: The need to improve supply chain decision-making.
As a SAS Managed Analytic Services Provider, or “MASP,” Quantworks has direct access to the broadest analytics platform available. Powered by cutting edge technologies that define the SAS and Intel partnership, the platform includes size optimization software, which Quantworks is using to carve a noticeable niche.
The first-year company is able to handle the heavy lifting of analytics for clients via cloud-based computing. In simple terms, Quantworks does all data prep, analysis and verification for clients, then shares results in a framework that makes sense to people who don’t claim to be data scientists.
“Optimization is what we’re solving for – what clothes go where and how they get there,” Quantworks co-founder Nick Ghitelman says. “We make it easier to innovate.”
From a big picture standpoint, Quantworks empowers its clients to do their jobs without the worry or hassle of understanding and managing the infrastructure. No need to deal with on-premise deployment. No need for training. Just the accelerated cloud-based analytics capabilities and solutions — minus the time, cost and complexities of on-site software implementation.
For any photography enthusiasts from a bygone era, the role Quantworks plays is akin to loading film into the camera.
“We’ve taken over the element that the end user doesn’t care about and made it simpler, so they can focus on getting the perfect picture,” Ghitelman says.
In other words, the MASP enables clients to thrive through flexibility. Quantworks makes it possible for clients to improve profits by focusing solely on the application of data-driven results.
What can you do to innovate on that information? That’s what Quantworks asks its clients. The MASP program makes it possible for you to ask your clients the same question.
