Big Data becomes Smart Data.
To know already today what is important tomorrow.

Do you know how much potential is hidden in your warehouse? Only a fraction of the data available in a company is systematically collected and, of that data, only a small part is analyzed and used to support business decisions. With EPG ONE™ TIMESQUARE, we provide a service that uncovers and analyzes untapped possibilities within the warehouse. Make use of existing data, and tap into the full potential of existing possibilities. Is your business very seasonal, for example? Using the collected and analyzed data, TIMESQUARE can provide targeted predictions for future developments.

Automatic Data Analysis.

Logistics Analytics as a solution from EPG CONSULTING.

4 steps to greater insight.

1. Data collection

A key part of the project is your existing data for analysis. You can also integrate external sources of data (e.g. sales forecasts and weather data).

The benefit of TIMESQUARE: you have your own database for logistics processes e.g. from LFS, which can be used by the SaaS (Software as a Service) model without worrying about the version.

2. Understanding the data

Data to solve the problem is identified, pre-selected and prepared for use in the model.

The benefit of TIMESQUARE: our many years of experience and the range of IT projects we have implemented means that we have a full understanding of logistical data, which can be accessed directly e.g. in LFS.

3. Pattern recognition

The selected data and subsequent modeling is used to create the data model for pattern recognition, which is then refined and finished in an iterative process.

The benefit of TIMESQUARE: the solution runs in our data center operated by Ehrhardt Partner Xtended (EPX), which analyzes the data and outputs the result e.g. directly to LFS. You therefore do not need any IT resources for this solution.

4. Forecast and implementation

Once pattern recognition is complete, TIMESQUARE is then implemented in your business. This includes setting up time- or event-based analysis and delivering the analysis results, e.g. to LFS, as well as local implementation of optimization logic.

The benefit of TIMESQUARE: the analysis results are incorporated directly into logistics operations to improve decision-making and processes. The results can be used regularly as a tool or to answer specific questions.
