Business Challenge & Improvement
Key to any technology project is the alignment of process. Technology in isolation often leads to failed projects and wasted investment. Our approach puts process challenge first and ensures that technology investment is spent wisely.

Change Management
Change Management
Outsourcing is often a necessary approach to effectively manage change. Multiple factors can lead to employee resistance towards change. It is crucial to adequately prepare and guide individuals impacted by the change to foster acceptance and facilitate a smooth transition towards achieving positive outcomes.

Retail Technology Solutions
We often state how important it is to have the fundamentals of retail in place in order for a retailer to deliver their customer promise. We offer two technology solutions enabling our clients to do just that: Origin, our PIM platform, and Archean, our stock solution.
Origin
Origin
Origin is our PIM (Product Information Management) platform, which gives its users a centralised location to store, manage and update all product data. Massively scalable and completely flexible, Origin can be used in multiple product management scenarios.

Archean

Archean, the stock platform from Retail247, was designed from the ground up as a massively scalable and configurable cloud engine. Archean can consume vast amounts of stock affecting actions.
