Accenture and DemandTec Help B&Q Manage Pricing, Merchandising and Assortment Across UK Stores

CHICAGO, Oct. 12, 2005 – Accenture (NYSE: ACN), a global management consulting, technology services and outsourcing company, and DemandTec, a leading provider of Consumer-Centric Merchandising Software, announced today the successful completion of a price optimization program for B&Q’s 320 stores in the United Kingdom
Accenture and DemandTec teamed to help B&Q with a comprehensive strategy to improve its pricing, merchandising and assortment decisions using DemandTec’s software, including the DemandTec Price™ application. Founded in 1969, B&Q is the number one home improvement and garden retailer in Europe and the third largest in the world.
“In order for B&Q to thrive, we must not only have a thorough understanding of customer needs but also the merchandising factors that impact demand,” said Howard Langer, Commercial Pricing Manager, B&Q. “By implementing DemandTec’s Consumer-Centric Merchandising Software we look forward to being more precise and effective in the items we put on the shelf and how we serve our customers.”
DemandTec Price™ is part of an integrated application suite which optimizes complete lifecycle pricing and includes DemandTec Promotion™ and DemandTec Markdown™. These applications enable retailers to strategically plan and execute optimal pricing strategies throughout the product lifecycle - new items, everyday priced items, promoted items, and markdowns - based on a complete understanding of consumer demand.
“Understanding customer buying behavior and the levers that drive profitable sales growth are critical to a retailer’s success, particularly given the intense focus on value in today’s retail sector,” said Richard Wildman, partner, Accenture Retail and Consumer Goods & Services practice. “B&Q will now be able to make more fact-based decisions about pricing, assortment and merchandising and, therefore, bring improved benefits to the company, its customers and its shareholders.”
“The retail environment in the UK is highly competitive,” said Dan Fishback, CEO of DemandTec. Retailers of all sizes can benefit from software that help analyze and evaluate pricing and merchandising. Now that DemandTec and Accenture have helped B&Q successfully implement this software, the company should be able to better achieve its revenue, volume, and profitability objectives while continually improving service to its customers throughout the U.K.”
