Bottom Line in Retail
The retail industry is facing significant disruption, creating both challenges and opportunities. As eCommerce technology plays an ever-increasing role in the distribution of services and products, companies become nimbler to gain a competitive advantage. The impacts of pervasiveness, personalization and privacy will be key challenges in the era of Retail Everywhere. And as customer needs and expectations continue to evolve, retailers must establish nimble, flexible, agile organizations. They must become Adaptive. Adopting evolving technologies like data warehouse, data lake and emerging cloud services has become the norm. The result is a mixed hardware and software environment supporting both new and legacy systems leading to software licensing complexities, increased cost, under-utilized product use rights, and excessive maintenance spend.
