October 23, 2006; 01:32 AM Gordon Biersch announced an agreement with Altametrics to deploy
their System Manager, Financial Management Series, Inventory Management
Series, Workforce Management Series, and Integration Series.
These solutions will provide Gordon Biersch with real time visibility
to their current costs, more accurate forecasts of their future costs,
and the ability to improve sales. Gordon Biersch will gain real time
visibility to their current costs via improved cash, sales, and
inventory management and reporting, as well as through Altametrics
web-enabled HR solutions, which include Timekeeping and Labor
Scheduling functions. More accurate forecasts will be generated for
Gordon Biersch by the e*Restaurant forecasting engine. This is the most
advanced, most accurate forecasting engine available in the industry.
The e*Restaurant forecasting engine reports, with unmatched accuracy,
what future store sales will be, and what amounts of inventory need to
be ordered to ideally meet the forecasted demand. In addition, the
e*Restaurant line of solutions will enable Gordon Biersch to automate
procurement from their distributors. Sales improvement for Gordon
Biersch will be achieved primarily from the optimization of staffing
levels. Gordon Biersch will no longer lose sales due to understaffing,
as the e*Restaurant Workforce Management Solution will operate in
conjunction with the sales forecaster to determine the ideal number,
and ideal mix of employees that need to be on hand to meet the
forecasted future demand.
“The e*Restaurant solutions from Altametrics put us in a position to
pro-actively control, and pro-actively manage our costs,” said Alex
Birnbaum, Senior Director of IT. “We will know what our current,
real-time costs are, and, with incredible accuracy, will know what our
future costs are going to be. This ability, along with all the other
solutions offered by Altametrics, makes them the ideal choice to meet
our enterprise needs.”
“We are proud to have been selected by a company of Gordon Biersch’s
caliber,” said Joe Picard, Vice President of Professional Services for
Altametrics. “I am confident that we will continue to provide the high
levels of service, and the unmatched degrees of return, that our
customers have come to expect.”
