CIS Group is one of the largest North-American providers of software solutions.
Direct Store Delivery (DSD), merchandising and Sales Force Automation (SFA), people transportation and freight transport.
Business practices are changing as new markets open up.
Consequently, the pace of business is accelerating exponentially. There is fierce competition among producers, distributors and retailers alike, just as well as among transporters, who must demonstrate creativity in order to gain or even retain market share. Profit margins keep diminishing, requiring businesses to be more productive and effective. Today, business intelligence plays a far more central role than formerly; the wise use of tools that can help you make the most of it does indeed give you an edge in business.
Choosing CIS Group is opting for an enterprise that moves into action to generate unique and momentous occasions that foster the development of durable relations.
