Datactics excels in dealing with high volumes of complex product data, with Fortune 500 companies such as Terex. Project Submitted: Datactics eCost Project with Terex Terex has built its business by the acquisition of a large number of organizations. In order to gain maximum advantage from this a group purchasing policy has been formulated which required the consolidation of spend data from all business units around the world despite being held in different formats, multiple languages and currencies in disparate ERP systems such as Oracle, Sage and SAP. The consolidation process provided by the Datactics solution is rapid and user friendly and can be utilized by anyone who understands the data, not just IT specialists. Once Terex knew the total spend across the board for a particular supplier or part, however described in the different systems, it was able to leverage the volume to negotiate a much more competitive price per unit of product, saving the company significant amounts of money. “Terex acquired a powerful, robust and secure data quality application which processes high volumes of sensitive data quickly and accurately without jeopardizing our data. The simplicity of the application has been embraced by its users, whilst its best price performance ratio together with its ability to be integrated with in-house applications has been welcomed by management.
