Retail Network SolutionsSeamless, real-time communication between corporate headquarters and local store locations ensures accurate messaging throughout your organization. You need a unified communication platform and a strong infrastructure to efficiently store and transfer information across an increasingly decentralized network. |
Inventory ManagementThe quality of service your employees provide can only be as good as the information at their disposal. They need to know exactly where and how a customer can purchase the products they want that may not be available in stores. Our inventory management solutions leverage advanced barcode and RFID technology, cloud-based inventory awareness software, and critical infrastructure updates to ensure your employees have all the product information they need to satisfy customers. |
Retail Mobile SolutionsEmployee mobility gives your staff all the information they need at their fingertips and impacts customer perceptions. Customers believe—and rightly so—that sales associates are more capable of providing fast, quality service when armed with a phone or tablet, which is why over half (52.8 percent) of customers in-store will seek them out exclusively. With our mobile device management and selection services, we’ll help you leverage the right devices for your employees’ needs. |
