The Challenge
To maintain a competitive advantage, retailers are always looking to retain brand value, reduce costs, improve efficiency, differentiate the shopping experience, and ensure flawless promotional execution. Besides, retailers must be able to react quickly to changing market conditions and consumer preferences to avoid excess inventory or the need for high markdowns.
The retail industry must also deal with payment transaction risks and protect IT system breaches of customers' private information, as well, as retailers' strategic data.
And with the need for integrated multi-channel strategy (traditional and Web stores), a common challenge facing all retailers today is the need to re-configure the organizational, strategic, and tactical objectives around the integration of disconnected and de-centralized cross-channel operations.
