avatar
Bruce Fram, host for Software Showcase.

All these companies have revenue, have gone very vertical and winning in those areas.  You’re going to see 5 great companies with real revenue solving real problems for real people.

eWork’s Hans Bukow
Companies need the ability to acquire services much in the way they acquire parts.  The bulk of what procurement looks after is services.  50% of procurement spend in Fortune 1000 companies is spent on services, compared with 22% on operating goods.

Most companies still lack visibility into more than 10% of purchasing data and workflow.
So how do you manage it, how do you get control
Managing a work-services supply chain
eWork-Broadline Partnership for Hospitals
Kaiser, e.g.
The #1 problem: acquiring nurses.
Critical shortage of nursing.  Broadlane = GPO (general purchasing org) contacted us to modify or app to work in the hospital industry.  Our app manages for them a $400M labor spend, 200 hospitals across 43 labor markets.

Customer base:
100s of corps serviced
2K+ activie consultancies in eWork markets
3K+ staffing and professional services suppliers
5K+ contractors engaged daily
500m+dollars of services spend managed

Specialty services in pharma and financial services, which we are looking to grow into as well.
We’ve focused on growing our gross margin on the business,
We are currently a leader in work services procurement
We make our money off of efficiently managing this capital of which we take a percentage.  A customer can get into this for no money down.
Staffing companies have predominantly provided these biz services solutions.  So we’re mostly competing with nobody doing anything; it’s very early on.

Itemfield’s Tony Rodoni
Integration is pure implementation mahem.  When software is sold, 3 to 4 times that is spent in services.  Moreover, it is not predictable; often planning one year to implement turns into 2.
Gartner, 75B will be spent on implementation, and 25B on data transformation this year alone.
We solve by automating data transformation – any data: structured, unstructured, semi-structured (EDI, SWIFT, MSMO, etc), complex structured (large XML schemas)
We embrace infrastructure companies who allow us to be an add-on.  We don’t disrupt.
We are mission-critical for American Airlines.  Managing their silent apps so they look and feel like one operation.  AA integrates flight operations with gate management and flight management.  We reduced their project cycle by at least one year.
SunTrust bank is using us for data transformation from COBOL to MISMO, they are going to reduce the paper-based process of approving loans from 100 days down to 1 day.
People want to use software where they are using people today.
Proven value at over 100 companies.

Burlington, Mass. and London, UK. More information about Kalido can be found at www.kalido.com.

Kalido’s Andy Hayler
Custom built data warehouses:
1.        Risky, 50% failure
2.        Take too long, average is 16 months to deploy
3.        Cannot adapt to change bc it’s structure is hard-coded into many often of hundreds of databases

What can take 3 months, Kalido reduces to 3 hours.
Two competitors, one is SAP.  I’ve brought a demo with me: he holds up a stuffed Tyrannosaurus. LOL. 
Implementing Kalido is 52 times faster than SAP.
We’re well-funded and have tripled revenue in the past three years. 
We have patented technology in the UK and US, and we continue to innovate.  We were the first product in this area and this has already become a market leader in it’s field.
Owens Corning had a qtr where revenues went up and gross margin went down and could not figure out why.  They were using SAP. Now we’re using Kalido and we can see every day what we did the day before.

Kalido can deal with change in a fundamentally different way than traditional warehousing. 
Our largest business challenges are backlash from the dotcom era where large companies are reluctant to buy from smaller companies.  This was a gigantic problem in 2002 and has become less for us now.

StorePerform’s Srikant Vasan
Goal: help each store reach it’s potential
1.        eliminate the gap between retail strategy and store execution
We saw a gap between management’s decision and the enactment of them at the thousands of retail stores.  Anything from a price change, to a new format, etc., and we sought to solve for that.
Founded 4 years ago. 
We have been profitable in the last 2 quarters
Customers are 5 of the top retailers
5m users/day: this stuff is getting used.
Market size, internal numbers:
Initial SEM target market = $900m through 2010 (tier 1 and 2 retailers, 800 companies WW)
Addressable market = Tier 3 retailers with sales between 250M and $500M
- Lowes is using us and extending it to their entire supply chain
Forces driving store performance
1.        change which defines the needs for being faster at every level w/in an enterprise
2.        service: value-added services, service-driven merchandising, consistent execution across chain
3.        productivity: huge number of low-hanging fruit in retail; using us retailers expect to get twice as much performance out of existing workforce, adding no workers
4.        localization: driving towards more localized merchandising,
Another way to think of this pain is when you look at the store employee, a lot of the impact is to increase the demand for operations activity which steals sales activities from the labor supply.  Store labor supply is constrained.
Where we’ve helped store execution management:
1.        supply chain
2.        retail merchandising
3.        point of sale
4.        workforce management
Customers: Ross, Albertsons, Lowes, Best Buy, Borders, JC Penney…
Retailers are tightwards, and we’ve built a profitable company and have these largest names in retail: we have a value add.
