PIRONET NDH

PIRONET NDH is a leading supplier of information and communications systems for the implementation of CPFR and ECR concepts. In its Retail & CPG division, the Cologne-based solution provider supports companies in the retail and consumer goods industries in improving business processes by streamlining their master data management, creating optimal collaboration throughout the supply chain. This approach helps businesses reduce costs and meet customer demands better than ever.

One of the company’s key assets is the pool of master data managed by SA2 Worldsync, a PIRONET NDH subsidiary. Virtually all major retail companies use it to exchange product master data with manufacturers. The pool provides high-quality, up-to-date information, ensuring efficient downstream processes. With its software products pirobase PIM (Product Information Management) and pirobase CMS (Content Management Solution) as well as concepts for direct customer address on the sales floor (Retail Store Solutions), PIRONET NDH offers a comprehensive portfolio of integrated solutions for effective retail data management.

pirobase PIM (Product Information Management) allows companies to generate, validate and consolidate product information and master data. Manufacturers can use PIM to manage and model their information and transfer it seamlessly to data pools like SA2 Worldsync. Retailers use pirobase PIM to enter master data into their internal systems and consolidate product information to ensure smooth category management and purchasing processes. In addition, the solution’s Digital Asset Management function supports companies in managing media data – for use in advertising campaigns or promotions, for example.

SA2 Worldsync, which resulted from the merger of SINFOS GmbH with the Agentrics GenSync business unit , is the leading data pool certified by the Global Data Synchronization Network (GDSN). PIRONET NDH, Agentrics LLC and GS1 Germany are its shareholders. The master data services of SA2 Worldsync place manufacturers in a position to match and share information with almost all major, globally operating retail companies. Data can be synchronized directly via the SA2 Worldsync pool or by means of the Global Data Synchronization Network (GDSN). Thousands of companies around the world take advantage of the SA2 Worldsync service portfolio.

With pirobase CMS (Content Management Solution), companies in the retail and consumer goods industries can manage structured and unstructured information of all kinds. The solution handles website and intranet content and supports knowledge management and the documentation of data and processes in compliance with legal regulations. pirobase CMS has been the standard content management product on the market for around ten years. Users of the solution, which is certified for integration with the SAP NetWeaver® Portal, include leading retail and industrial companies.

To effectively promote sales, retailers must supply consumers at the point of sale (POS) with precisely the right information – in the right format and at the right time. Retail store solutions from PIRONET NDH meet these demands. The concepts, which include self-scanning, interactive kiosks and digital signage applications, systematically expand the supply chain right up to the sales floor.
