Archi-Tech Systems Inc. Has Extended Its DART Product Suite to Include a Decision Support Tool for DDD or Source Non-Retail Data

WEST TRENTON, N.J., Dec. 24, 2002 -- Archi-Tech Systems Inc., known for its decision support tools that utilize its revolutionary indexing and compression technology, has announced its latest product offering - DART Outlet.

DART Outlet enables pharmaceutical companies to maximize their understanding of their non-retail business and also to fully leverage their data expenditures. The pharmaceutical industry now has the ability to target institutions, measure sale force effectiveness and monitor the impact of contracts with an analytical tool as powerful as those traditionally used to target physicians.

DART Outlet will allow the integration of different data environments that will provide the industry with a full view of their non-retail business. This new tool has the ability to integrate data from sales data vendors (DDD & Source Non-Retail), call data or sample distribution (with physician affiliations) from your sales force automation or CRM solutions, prescription outflow, sales force alignments and institutional profiles.

DART Outlet will also allow integration of other data sources, such as internal direct sales data or data received directly from wholesalers or chains (for example, Kaiser or Wal-Mart). Also, the tool can incorporate admissions, diagnosis and procedure counts to provide a "total view of business."

"This level of integration will allow the industry to measure the ROI on their non-retail business unlike anything before possible", said Paul Gray, President of Archi-Tech Systems Inc. "We have leveraged our proven technology, already used to deliver insights into prescriber and payer data; and deployed it to the non-retail business at our customers' request."

DART Outlet will allow a pharmaceutical company to view full "supply chain" data for its own products and competitors, by major and minor class-of-trade. Data at the lowest level purchased including direct to physician sales can also be included.

A remarkable all-in-one solution for marketing, sales management, and contracting, it integrates key information analyzing sales and targeting potential across the entire supply chain.
