Ocuco announces a major deal with 500 store chain Salmoiraghi & Viganò, the largest optical chain in Italy.
In November, Ocuco successfully completed phase 1 of the project, rolling out its Acuitas Enterprise software across the 375 owned stores at rates of up to 36 stores per week over a 3 month period. Phase 2 of the project which encompasses the remaining 125 franchise and concession outlets is being planned, and is expected to be completed by June 2011.
Salmoiraghi & Viganò (S&V) began their IT selection process in 2009. They evaluated many software suppliers, both from the optical retail software vertical, like Ocuco, and from the generic EPOS software horizontal. “With the increasing complexity of IT systems it is more economical to co-outsource to a specialist company, leveraging their economies of learning and of scale. We underwent an extensive procurement process, and are very satisfied with the breadth of capabilities which Ocuco brought. Their products are robust, their infrastructure is well developed and their staff are very experienced.” said Antonio Nicoletti, IT Director of Salmoiraghi & Viganò.
