Solutions for Retail

Increasing profitability & performance through Data Integration

Retailers understand that integrating their operational & financial systems and streamlining their supply chain is a key to achieving maximum revenue and profitability. With billions of dollars lost each year due to supply chain inefficiencies, small and mid-sized retailers need to minimize their cost structure by ensuring lean staffing, the highest degree of operational efficiency and maximum throughput.

However, many small and mid-sized regional retailers are hindered in their attempts to automate business processes because of poor data quality and a proliferation of incompatible in-house systems. EDI, Sales Force Automation, ERP, and Warehouse Management. These systems have specific and financially critical needs for the organization but they all contribute to an ever-increasing level of complexity and human processes that hobble the retailer’s ability to grow.

If regional retailers are to remain competitive against much larger national competitors, a clear and uninterrupted flow of data and goods from supplier to point of sale must be achieved. These companies will need to be able to access disparate data, integrate it and deliver it where necessary when necessary with minimal human interaction. Only when doing so will these retailers achieve a number of significant benefits:

Reducing costs through improved operational efficiency

By eliminating costly bottlenecks, human data entry steps and automating the flow of data, costs are reduced and operational efficiency is maximized 

Optimal supply chain clarity

By enabling the on-time, quality access to data throughout the organization and the supply chain they will achieve the sort of supply chain clarity that is critical to ensure competitive positioning

Achieving the highest degree of inventory turn-over

By eliminating data entry steps and automating the flow of data retailers can ensure the best products are available where necessary and when necessary optimizing inventory turns and maximizing revenue.
