CP Group Chooses Applix TM1 For More Flexible And Versatile Planning And Analysis.

LONDON & WESTBOROUGH, Mass. -- Applix, Inc. (NasdaqGS: APLX), a leading business analytics software solutions provider, today announced it has been chosen by the CP Group Ltd, one of the UK's biggest tile and stone suppliers, to supply Applix TM1 for planning and analysis to the Yorkshire-based company.

Applix TM1 will be used to collate data, currently being held across several different systems including product lists, customer databases and sales reporting. By implementing TM1, data will be pulled into one comprehensive database, allowing the company to analyze product margins from any area of the business at the touch of a button. TM1 will be integral in providing crucial statistics and data as part of a new product costing system being developed internally.

On choosing Applix TM1, James Clarkson, Group Finance Director for the CP Group commented, "Applix TM1 has more flexibility and options than other comparable applications." Mr Clarkson successfully used Applix at a previous company where it was fundamental in transforming the business from a loss making position to a profitable one by helping drive through price increases and cost reduction initiatives. "I hope to reproduce the information and drive the profits forward. At my previous company, TM1 provided the platform for all the company's business intelligence and within a short period of time, the results spoke for themselves."

The Applix solution will work alongside CP Group's existing reporting applications where it will provide the response engine to process and analyze large volumes of data very quickly. It will give the company the flexibility to upgrade modules of its current ERP system while leaving TM1 as the seamless front end reporting. Through Applix TM1's in-memory processing, CP Group will also be able to analyse within seconds the impact of financial results at different points through the year. This will allow CP Group to identify exactly where the profit is coming form at any given time, allowing the company to use this information to its full potential.

"CP Group can now focus on developing its new product costing system in a faster and more flexible way, which will in turn help the company become more agile and cost effective within a short period of time," said Martin Richmond-Coggan, Vice President, EMEA, Applix.
