Burlington Coat Factory, a nationally recognized retailer of high-quality, branded apparel at every day low prices, currently operates 397 stores in 44 states.
Burlington Coat Factory plans to use MicroStrategy for reporting and analysis on key merchandising metrics. MicroStrategy will convert the detailed transactional data into personalized reports through dashboards and exception reporting for Burlington Coat Factory executives and merchants. MicroStrategy teamed with QuantiSense to provide Burlington Coat Factory with an end-to-end solution for their retail business intelligence requirements.
“Following a highly competitive evaluation of merchandising-related BI products, we felt that MicroStrategy and QuantiSense provided the solution that best fit our growing BI requirements,” said Brad Friedman, Senior Vice President of Information Services, Burlington Coat Factory. “MicroStrategy is a robust BI product with proven retail experience. We were impressed with MicroStrategy’s analytical toolset, which we expect to empower our users to create their own reports and dashboards and remove IT from the report request process.”
