Products and services
Integrated Database Management System (IDM) is an integrated enterprise system, where all database development, conversion, ongoing processing, and reporting is conducted at the DMA data center and accessed through cloud computing. Institutions can have complete access to their database through IDM OnLine tools and services. The company claims that the system is fully integrated with profitability and Profit risk at its core. The profitability-based analysis can identify concentrations in the income statement which can then be diversified for a sustainable income statement.[3] The IDM system can be a tool in creating a sustainable income statement.[4][5]
According to Bloomberg.com, CEOs of big bank] like Wells Fargo and Bank of America are in agreement with DMA's view that diversifying revenue streams by cross selling will be helpful in expanding business and turning profits.[6] The IDM system has profitability and Profit risk at its center and DMA was recognized by Credit Union Executives Society for its system.[7]
The Research and Analytic Services division of the company designs and manages marketing research projects with a variety of qualitative research and quantitative research tools, and primary research and secondary research methodologies. This division provides detailed analysis and recommendations with specific strategies and plans. The research and analysis division also designs and helps implement "Matrix Marketing" programs for segmenting the base on demographics, businessgraphics, incomes and other criteria to maximize results achieved from marketing programs.[8]
According to the company's CEO Rich Weissman in the Western Independent Banker (WIB) Magazine, similar programs can help in designing incentive programs that incentivize officers based on profitability and not volumes.[9] Clients are also using the software to more effectively price their products.[10]
The Institute focuses on research on the latest issues facing the financial services industry. Some of the Institute's offerings include webinars and articles in the industry publications. According to the American Bankers Association's Bank Marketing magazine, Rich Weissman who also heads the DMA Institute, coined the term "Profit risk" which combined with credit risk and ALM risk, forms the third critical component of risk management.[11] The Institute advocates the critical role marketing and sales can play by marrying itself with finance.[12]
