Expo, April 14-17. Kandysoft CEO Jayantha Ekenayake said that the company was investing heavily in regional marketing based on
some major trends. “Consumer Goods Manufacturers are setting up their regional headquarters in Honk Kong, Malaysia and
Singapore to service the growing number of international retailers as well as the more traditional stores and markets,” Mr. Ekenayake
said. “

That’s why we believe we are in the right place at the right time to be launching a product that helps improve productivity and retailer negotiations in consumer goods companies.” Mr. Ekenayake said the marketing function in particular would be interested in Dianome, which is the Greek word for “Distribution”.

“In the past decade or so, many companies have invested hundreds of thousands of dollars, if not millions, to consolidate and introduce business process improvement by using Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems,” Mr. Ekenayake said

“Now they need to maximize the return on that investment by allowing their sales teams and management to access and update all that information in real-time. That’s what Dianome does, at a very competitive cost.” Dianome can operate as a standalone product using its own native business intelligence dashboards in a mobile, laptop or PC environment, and it can integrate seamlessly with the BI dashboards in Microsoft’s SharePoint Server and PerformancePoint Server.

Dianome is already proven in markets such as Sri Lanka and Pakistan and the company has established a beachhead in Hong Kong, winning a multinational consumer product customer in the region. “ They tell us that they have done significant research to find a
product like ours but found that we had overcome some of the telecommunications as well as business challenges of managing a
sales force in the sometimes quirky Asian environment,” Mr. Ekenayake says.

Dianome’s unique features include its ability to make efficient and economic use of narrow, unreliable communication bandwidth.
“It has the ability to handle many layers of distribution channels and still allow the regional Head Office a clear view of the grassroots
shop and consumer activity in real-time,” Mr. Ekenayake says. “This leads to more effective promotional planning and stock placement.”
