Information technology (IT)
We provide a new take on store operations--while flashy technology attracts and engages customers in the "store of the future," the make-or-break technology is actually behind the scenes. That's the technology that gathers and connects data for a seamless customer experience. In our own "store of the future" this includes dwell sensing, RFID, heavy investments in the data lake, and the logic needed to map the customer journey. But technology is only one piece of the puzzle; solving the operations equation also involves analytics, new store processes, and upskilling the store team. Such a transformation can add several points of profitability to the average store.
