SofTechnics Teams With IBM to Deliver Innovative Solutions

SofTechnics, a leading provider of integrated retail enterprise item and price management software solutions, announced today the expansion of their relationship with IBM with the validation of SoftSPA.CE as "Ready for IBM Retail Store Innovations - Store Integration Framework (SIF)."

IBM works with select IBM Business Partners in a validation initiative designed to identify solutions that meet a rigorous assessment of next- generation open-standards store environments. The IBM Ready for Store Integration Framework initiative brings together software vendors that deliver proven industry-specific solutions.

SoftSPA.CE is a browser-based Shelf Price Verification solution designed for the IBM Store Integration Framework architecture. The purpose is to verify shelf price barcodes scanned via an RF based PDA with the IBM 4690 item database. The PDA screens are fully configurable and stored on the store server and presented to the operator at login. Security levels determine which functions and information the operator can access.

For over 20 years, SofTechnics has delivered item and price management software solutions to retailers and is proud to partner with retail technology leaders such as IBM. SofTechnics has been recognized by the RIS 2005 Retail Software Leaderboard as one of the top 45 Software Vendors in Retail and was voted by retailers as being one of the top ten vendors for performance, return on investment, cost of ownership, and strategic value.

"At SofTechnics, our focus continues to be delivering best practices solutions that meet the needs of our customers, and provide measurable and immediate ROI."
