Through a strategic partnership with a technology company based in Minneapolis, Co-Optimum's technology resources include 100 IT professionals including a large number of web and database programmers offering expansive experience and capabilities along with database engineers, web designers, security experts, etc. We work in all popular programming languages and with a wide scope of projects - ranging from Enterprise-wide solutions, stand along database programming, custom web applications, and add-on web modules like MDF Planning, Online Fixture/Merchandise Ordering, Incentive, and Trade and Consumer Systems.

Our technology capability - combined with our 25 years experience in managing Trade Allowance and Consumer programs - makes Co-Optimum a truly unique resource! Where else can you find this combination of technological capability and Co-op/MDF program administration expertise? By the time others understand the business problems, Co-Optimum could be done building you a complete custom Co-op/MDF web-based system.

But not all companies or trade allowance programs require custom programming. Our powerful, yet flexible co-op administration databases and website software contain virtually all of the business rules and all the functionality necessary to manage and track most Co-op and MDF programs with off-the-shelf software.

This means that, for farily standard Co-op or MDF programs, Co-Optimum is capabily of implementing a a standard Co-op/MDF database and website within several days. Not only are we very efficient with our standard technology, but the cost is surprisingly affordable. You see, when we re-wrote our technology from the ground-up several years ago, we incorporate Software Modules that can be simply turned-on or turned-off depending upon each new client's individual business needs.

 So whether you simply need a turnkey, standard solution, or a completely custom system, Co-Optimum can get it implemented within weeks, not months, and at a surprisingly affordable price-point.
