Lloydspharmacy Expands Use of MicroStrategy
MicroStrategy® Incorporated (NASDAQ: MSTR), a leading worldwide provider of business intelligence software, today announced that Lloydspharmacy has selected the MicroStrategy Business Intelligence Platform� to deliver its corporate management information and improve decision-support reporting.
McLean, Va. (October 12, 2005) –
MicroStrategy® Incorporated (NASDAQ: MSTR), a leading worldwide provider of business intelligence software, today announced that Lloydspharmacy has selected the MicroStrategy Business Intelligence Platform(TM) to deliver its corporate management information and improve decision-support reporting. The largest community pharmacy in the UK, Lloydspharmacy generates turnover of £1.4 billion from more than 1,400 pharmacies and employs over 13,000 people.
Previously using MicroStrategy to analyze over-the-counter sales, Lloydspharmacy has now expanded its deployment across its Operations and Finance departments, with applications going live for Management Reporting in February 2005 and Key Performance Indicator (KPI) reporting going live in April 2005. The new implementations are part of an Information Strategy to improve data management, analysis, and reporting, aimed at enhancing the decision making processes of senior and operational management.
“Using MicroStrategy, we have been able to seamlessly fuse analysis and reporting from both our sales and financial operations for the first time, which allows us to examine business performance with ease from both sides. In the past, this involved lengthy examination of a number of disparate systems and ‘speed-of-thought’ drill-down to individual transaction was not possible,” explained Ian Fereday, Head of Business Intelligence at Lloydspharmacy. “Lloydspharmacy has made a significant investment in new EPoS infrastructure during the last four years, so we needed the right BI platform to extract real business value from the new data created,” continued Fereday. “MicroStrategy has the scalability and ease-of-use which allows us to increase the availability and timeliness of analysis and reporting, but also widen its application across the organization.”
During the next phase of deployment at Lloydspharmacy, KPIs will be used to create balanced scorecards, providing the framework for improved management of both short-term performance and longer-term service delivery goals. “Balanced scorecards are one of the next steps in how BI will help support the business at Lloydspharmacy,” commented Fereday. “By making people more accountable and embedding performance measurement in day-to-day operations, we are ensuring that the business is best placed to deliver new services and long-term revenue streams are secured.”
“MicroStrategy is very proud to be helping Lloydspharmacy increase its business agility by empowering a wider range of business users with operational and financial insight,” commented Tony Bethell, MicroStrategy UK Managing Director.

Dayton Early College Academy Powers Educational Assessment Program with MicroStrategy
MicroStrategy® Incorporated (NASDAQ: MSTR), a leading worldwide provider of business intelligence software, today announced that Dayton Early College Academy (DECA), selected MicroStrategy to support its educational assessment strategy and accountability plan for students
McLean, Va. (September 29, 2005) –
MicroStrategy® Incorporated (NASDAQ: MSTR), a leading worldwide provider of business intelligence software, today announced that Dayton Early College Academy (DECA), selected MicroStrategy to support its educational assessment strategy and accountability plan for students. One of the first institutions of its kind in the United States and the first early college high school in Ohio, DECA’s mission is to maximize each student’s unique potential through a personalized, accelerated academic program.
DECA, which serves more than 200 high school students in Dayton, Ohio, uses MicroStrategy to capture, manage, and report real-time performance data in support of students’ personalized learning plans and academic progress. The type of data gathered includes student assessment activity, attendance, and demographic information. State content standards including benchmarks and indicators along with school learning goals and standardized test data are also analyzed.
DECA staff members use a web page template to enter assessments for each student, along with creating a “Personal Learning Plan” that details the student’s progress toward learning goal completion. Using MicroStrategy, the teachers, students, and parents have easy access to personalized reports with up-to-date performance information.
“Last year, we were faced with custom programming, tedious work, long delays, and total dependency on outside contract support to generate the information we wanted for each student,” said Dr. Judy Hennessey of DECA. “This level of manual work was not sustainable.”
Prithvi Solutions, a systems integration and consulting partner with MicroStrategy, helped DECA implement a Student Performance Monitoring and Reporting application using the MicroStrategy business intelligence platform. Hennessey continued, “MicroStrategy’s scalability, affordability, ease-of-use, and quality support and training have exceeded our expectations.”
“We are delighted to support the mission of DECA in seeking to maximize a student’s potential through a customized academic program,” said Sanju Bansal, MicroStrategy’s COO. “MicroStrategy’s industrial-strength platform, known for its ease-of-use, Web-based interface, and outstanding analytical capabilities, provides actionable data that can be used to help improve the academic performance of students at DECA.”

Located on the campus of the University of Dayton, the school serves an enrollment of no more than 400 students and currently is in its third year of operation.

Captain D’s Launches Phone-Based Customer Satisfaction Survey with Angel.com
Chain of 600 Seafood Restaurants to Use Interactive Voice Response to Capture Immediate Customer Feedback
McLean, Va. (September 28, 2005) –
Angel.com, a leading provider of on-demand call center and Interactive Voice Response (IVR) solutions and a division of MicroStrategy® Incorporated (NASDAQ: MSTR), announced today that Captain D’s, a chain of 600 seafood restaurants, has selected Angel.com to build and deploy a phone-based customer satisfaction survey. The solution, which uses IVR to record customer responses, has already been deployed in 325 Captain D’s locations and a national rollout is planned in the near future.
Captain D’s selected Angel.com’s survey solution to capture instant feedback from customers after they complete their dining experience. Random customer receipts include a toll-free number which prompts the caller to answer 10 questions. The solution is completely integrated with Captain D’s point-of-sale system and web services, allowing for quick and easy reporting.
Captain D’s uses the data from the surveys to make recommendations to individual locations on improving the guest experience. The surveys are available for viewing instantly after the survey is completed and the stores and upper management are notified within minutes of surveys that may need attention. The company has already received over 6,000 completed surveys and expects to receive over 31,000 by the end of 2005.
“We needed to ramp up our phone-based survey pretty quickly and I didn’t want the learning curve that comes with an on-premise system. I was pleasantly surprised that Angel.com was able to provide a solution that my IT staff could build and manage internally at a very reasonable price. Angel.com made the entire process very easy,” said Chris Crabtree, Vice President of Information Services for Captain D’s.
“Typically in a project like this, doing the integration between systems takes as long as developing the core of the project. But working with Angel.com, we finished the integration quickly and I could concentrate on building meaningful reporting from the collected data,” said Steve Jacobs, Captain D’s lead programmer on the project.
“We are thrilled that Captain D’s selected Angel.com to build and deploy its customer satisfaction survey,” said Mike Zirngibl, President & CEO of Angel.com. “This is a perfect example of what Angel.com is built for – rapid development of IVR solutions that can be integrated with web services and managed internally by the customer’s IT staff.”

Headquartered in Nashville, Tenn., Captain D’s Seafood owns, operates and franchises more than 580 restaurants in 24 states. The first store was opened in Donelson, Tenn., in 1969 as Mr. D’s. The company later changed its name to Captain D’s Seafood and became Captain D’s, LLC, in August 2002.
