Challenge
The Challenge
ShopMart's 85 retail stores and e-commerce operated on disconnected systems. Online orders frequently cancelled due to inventory discrepancies. No unified customer view prevented personalized marketing. Loyalty program penetration stuck at 12%. Click-and-collect implementation failed twice due to integration complexity. Competitors with unified commerce gained market share.

Inventory accuracy audit at 10 pilot stores quantified discrepancy sources. Vendor consolidation reduced integration complexity. Rollout plan prioritized high-volume stores and e-commerce integration.

Testimonial
Client Perspective
“We finally have one view of our customer and one view of our inventory. That sounds simple but took years and two failed attempts with other vendors. Team X's event-driven architecture was the breakthrough—we see inventory changes in seconds, not hours.”
