DMK-ERP is built, from the ground up, on architecture with design expressly suited to the retailer.  Traditional systems inherently are based on financial design creating data choke points (see Architecture Figure 1) that severely limit access to the meaningful metrics and information necessary for real-time management of the retail value chain. 

DMK-ERP’s multi-sided database accommodates total visibility of the retail processes by removing tradition design inhibitors.  (see Architecture Figure 2).  Combine the use of a single robust platform with the intelligent business functionality, a single true version of the data is available throughout the retail enterprise, even from remote locations.

Functional comparison of the traditional set up versus the DMK-ERP set up can be seen here.  The result of DMK-ERP’s set up is a unique stock driven process architecture that clearly keeps your managers informed of your stock, in every location, and margins with the ability to rapidly make changes directly the POS.

An example of DMK-ERP’s tremendous power by focussing the data design on structure rather than tables is the typical catalogue structure.  Uninhibited data design allows for an almost unlimited depth within the catalogues giving more power to analyse actual metrics and better predict future requirements.  Click here to see examples.

DMK-ERP is field proven, exceptionally scalable and has extensive standards against which all processes are tested.  I.E.:  POS transaction volumes are load tested by running 10 concurrent POS devices with load testing software simulating random sales with a minimum of 8 random products per invoice, applying multiple payment methods with multiple currencies. The target is for all 10 concurrent devices to each complete 50 sales transactions every 10 minutes.  Click here to view scalability testing reference document.

DMK-ERP also has benchmarked against commonly available brand name hardware.  Click here for DMK-ERP’s technical hardware specifications.
