Big Data Partnership with OFD Kontur

Fiscal data operators First OFD and Contour OFD announced a partnership in Big Data processing on March 25, 2019. The collaboration is designed to increase the accuracy of analytical results and the quality of sales market research. Earlier, First OFD agreed to integrate expertise on analytical products with several more OFDs.

Including the operators of fiscal data "First OFD" and "Contour OFD" agreed on the consolidation of expertise in the field of Big Data. The information coming from the cash desks to the OFD contains a lot of data necessary for sales analytics. To obtain analytical results with a given accuracy, more coverage is required than that of each operator individually.

It is expected that the unification of operators will unify work with data and increase the accuracy of market analysis. An additional advantage of new analytical services will be the relevance and reliability of the data - information in an impersonal form excludes the possibility of error. All analytics and statistics based on this information will be presented in dynamics. This will allow customers to quickly respond to trends and reduce economic and production risks.

In the field of OFD, an ecosystem of analytical products is being formed, "said Maxim Larkin, Development Director of First OFD. - This is quite logical, because when working with big data, horizontal scalability is fundamentally important. Any system that involves processing big data must be extensible. By increasing the amount of data, we increase the representativeness of the sample and the accuracy of the analysis.

The trade and services market needs quality analytics. This helps players see trends, make plans and adjust the motion vector. In order for the market to receive such analytics, it is necessary to summarize and process big data, "says Mikhail Dobrovolsky, project manager at Kontur.OFD. - Fiscal data operators have different market size and different number of connected points. They can form analytics, but individually it will not be as large-scale as the market needs. The interaction of fiscal data operators allows you to analyze more data and create a more accurate picture.

Kontur OFD became the fourth operator to join the integration of big data efforts. Earlier, at the initiative of the First OFD, they agreed on cooperation with the operators OFD-Ya and Taxcom.

Creating a joint product with OFD-Ya

On February 19, 2019, First OFD announced that it had decided to cooperate with OFD-Ya. Companies will join forces to work with big data.

As of February 2019, fiscal data operators are required to transfer information from cash desks to the Federal Tax Service, as well as store and ensure its confidentiality. In their personal accounts, customers of operators can receive a number of sales reports that were conducted through their cash registers up to a specific check. However, the information transmitted from the cash desks contains a huge amount of data useful for analyzing the sales of goods and services, the impact of the price on trade, the physical presence or absence of goods on the shelf, and many others. The difficulty of compiling and analyzing the "full picture" of the market is that, firstly, data is stored by a large number of operators (there are 20 of them as of February 2019), and secondly, information within operators is stored in different "formats." The chosen approach, which was announced by the First OFD and OFD-Ya, will allow combining impersonal data under one denominator, which, according to partners, will increase the accuracy of any market analysis study.

According to the statement of the First OFD, the cooperation creates a product that is "more reliable than existing solutions," since the data of the First OFD and OFD-Ya are reliable and exclude the possibility of human error. In addition, statistics and analytics are collected in real time, which allows customers to have access to all information online, and not after 3-4 months.

The products that we are able to offer to customers and manufacturers by combining our efforts are more technological, faster and, most importantly, more accurate. Manufacturers receive analytical tools of the XXI century. Combining the efforts of the OFD to create a product allows you to solve many problems facing large manufacturing companies. This is both accurate determination of market trends, and optimization of logistics loads, and planning and administration of online marketing campaigns.

This is the first project to work with BigData, uniting the efforts of several players in the OFD market. At the current pace, it is not enough to have information, you need to have it online - this is a key factor affecting business development. With the help of the developed solution, we will convert BIG data into SMART data and provide the business with an asset capable of generating profit. Thus, the quality of use of analytical information is changing. In fact, we offer customers a much more effective alternative to traditional real-time data management systems.

As a result of cooperation, customers of First OFD and OFD-Ya, such as retail companies and manufacturers, will be able to get, for example, a tool for prompt response and risk reduction when conducting large and resource-intensive marketing campaigns.
