Systems and Technology

You can't manage what you don't measure

This goes to our core.

We know retailing, we know best practices, and we know systems and technology vendor offerings. 

We apply this knowledge and experience to align business systems to the needs of our specific retailing client.  This often means making key business performance measures visible so management can make better operational and strategic decisions.

We are often engaged to inject business driven thinking into IT projects.

The underlying uses of technology for retailers are to:

  • Collect and consolidate data about transactional activity in a timely manner (and with data integrity)
  • Turn data into business intelligence (knowledge about what's really happening)
  • Provide secure access to intelligence at the right time for the right cost to the right people at the right place to increase revenue generation, improve productivity, and customer satisfaction
  • Process and deliver information to support operational and strategic decision making

Josem Consulting deeply understands the importance of good systems governance.

We have worked in just about every area of technology as it applies to retailers.  This includes:

  • POS systems
  • Inventory and merchandise management
  • Customer Relationship Management
  • Traffic counting 
  • Kiosk and Mobility solutions
  • Supply chain and warehouse inventory management
  • OTB and merchandise planning
  • Price and revenue optimisation
  • Multi-channel 
  • Mobile apps
  • Employee and customer portals
  • Experiential technology

Systems selection, management, and  implementation

We help retailers define their specific needs to achieve specific business objectives, and then help them select the best matched solution.  We manage projects by linking our retail industry experience and our knowledge about how to get value out of the technologies with particular client challenges.

   

Our knowledge and ability to apply best-practice business processes to our client's spoecific environment enables us to assist retailers drive improvements to their bottom line. 

 

We align systems with business processes as part of every engagement.

  

It's not simply a matter of installing the system and software, its about helping the people that will use the system to maximise productivity in their use of the system after we leave.

   

If you are considering a technology project, then we would be delighted to explore how we might work together to your best advantage.
