Demandware Inc announced Demandware ExpertCommerce, a new comprehensive program that delivers successful ecommerce initiatives for high-growth fashion retailers and branded manufacturers.

Designed for small- to mid-market ecommerce businesses, ExpertCommerce combines Demandware's industry-leading on-demand ecommerce platform; best-practices from Demandware and Sapient for ecommerce strategy, implementation, integrations and ongoing revenue growth; and leading third-party technologies, including Omniture web analytics.

Under this program, all entitlements, including fixed-date site launches, are provided at one value-priced fee that minimizes initial capital investments and accelerates implementation of high-growth operations.

With ExpertCommerce, fashion retailers and consumer brands benefit from ecommerce best practices developed by Demandware and partner Sapient over the course of more than one hundred site implementations. Demandware clients include brand leaders such as Jones Apparel Group, Timberland, Barneys New York, Bare Escentuals, Frederick's of Hollywood and Lifetime Brands. During the 2008 holiday period, Demandware clients increased revenue 30% over the 2007 holiday season (compared to an industry average of -3% as reported by comScore) and with uptime exceeding that of the Internet Retailer Top 50 sites.

“Retailers and consumer brands know they must invest in the online channel, but at the same time, investment dollars are very tight. Demandware's ExpertCommerce program removes the risks with projects of this size and importance,” said Stephan Schambach, Chairman and Founder Demandware.

“With the Demandware ExpertCommerce program, emerging online retailers can take advantage of Sapient's expertise in ecommerce strategy, creative, advertising, analytics and technology applied to the leading on-demand ecommerce platform,” said Chris Davey, Senior Vice President, Sapient's Global Cross-Channel Commerce Practice. “Together, Demandware and Sapient provide retailers with a value-based solution for the entire ecommerce lifecycle.”

“Omniture's partnership with Demandware and Sapient allows us to together provide industry-leading solutions that reach new markets and fulfill the needs of our mutual customers,” said Mark Dillon, Vice President of Worldwide Agency Sales. “Through the Demandware ExpertCommerce program, small to mid-market companies will be able to leverage Omniture SiteCatalyst to receive a full view into the conversion process, allowing them to create more targeted campaigns that lead to increased conversions and a more optimized customer experience.”
