XFormity Enters Into Agreement With Shula's Steak Houses to Deploy Business Intelligence Solution

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--XFormity Technologies (OTCBB: XFMY.OB) has entered into an agreement with Shula’s Steak Houses to deploy its Business Intelligence solution across all 30 Shula’s franchise locations in an effort to substantially improve visibility across the organization with the right data available at the right time. Making fact based decisions will never be easier.

Since 2001, XFormity has provided time-saving solutions to Fast Food and sandwich giants such as Burger King and Cosi, Inc., in an effort to provide highly targeted operational reporting and analytical tools that lets managers receive strategic information where, when and how they need it to make better business decisions.

Now, XFormity brings its wealth of experience and success into the fine dining arena. With Shula’s Steak Houses, XFormity will enable Shula’s to upgrade and analyze its current operational metrics information, sales of products and utilize a balanced scorecard to rank restaurant performance metrics. XFormity will be developing interfaces with eight (8) point-of-sale systems as well as collecting data from multiple additional data points.

Shula’s Steak Houses President, Dave Shula says, “We look forward to completing the implementation of the XFormity solution. This will provide us much needed visibility across all of our locations. We will now have availability of data that will allow us to make fact-based business decisions. In addition to the operational reporting, XFormity will work with us to develop royalty reporting, a mystery shopper report and a balanced scorecard report (master site report)."

Auxis Consulting representative, Curtis Lupton states, “We were hired by Shula’s to support them in the identification and review of potential polling and Business Intelligence providers. After assessing a number of companies, XFormity was chosen as one of the final candidates. Evaluation of XFormity was done through product demonstrations, interviews, and alignment of functionality to Shula’s business requirements; this ultimately resulted in XFormity significantly out scoring their competitors.”

XFormity CEO, Chris Ball comments, “We look forward to completing the development work and getting Shula’s live on the solution. The Shula’s opportunity moves us into the fine dining category and also shows the value we provide to a franchisor working with their franchisees.”
