How Unified Is Your Approach To Operations Management?
Operations Management is getting broader as retailers move into more channels. What once was a retail business in a geographical location now is expected to be online, too. Many retailers have expanded their enterprise to include wholesale. The variety of possibilities for expansion means that Operations Management software needs to be able to integrate and synchronize multiple streams of information and unify the data into an efficient, comprehensive strategy.
One Consumer, Many Channels, One Business
Consumers are redefining the way that retail operates because the shopper can interact online via their desktop or mobile device or in person. The increasing digital savviness of the consumer means the shopper expects a seamless shopping experience across every touchpoint because they know what is possible. That means retailers who expand their channels have to be equally seamless in their management of all aspects of the business.
