Innovation in Retail Market Using Omni-Chanel

Innovation in Retail Market Using Omni-Chanel AbstractAs evolution of the concept of customer service channels, the omni-channel was driven by the new information and communication technologies that have brought the consumer a new dynamic in the relationship with retailers. This new dynamic imposes on the retailer a series of changes in its internal management processes. The consumer shopping journey can start in the cell phone, go through a physical store for experimentation or withdrawal of the product or service and end up in a social network from an opinion, good or bad, about the service or product. And this view can spread quickly by influencing other consumers. The technology alone is not enough to ensure that during that journey the consumer has satisfactory experience that can boost new sales. It is up to the retailer to prepare its numerous business processes and also its organization, composed of people with their due roles and responsibilities, for this new dynamic. For its part, this consumer when perceiving this value offer is willing to reward the retailer through engagement with his brand and new purchases. In this context, among the most important processes to be adapted to the omni-channel are those involved with the supply chain. A perfect synchrony of this chain is what guarantees products, services or both at a fair price, in the right place and at the right time. This study seeks to investigate, through a single case study, how the introduction of the omni-channel is being managed by a brasilian retailer that markets durable goods of several segments. It is demonstrated that there is an alignment between the theory and the practice about supply chain impacts from the implementation of the omni-channel in retail companies and that this strategy can collaborate to meet the demands of new consumers and at the same time provide financial and operational results satisfactory for the retailer. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Quality Production Improvement - QPI de Gruyter

Abstract

AbstractAs evolution of the concept of customer service channels, the omni-channel was driven by the new information and communication technologies that have brought the consumer a new dynamic in the relationship with retailers. This new dynamic imposes on the retailer a series of changes in its internal management processes. The consumer shopping journey can start in the cell phone, go through a physical store for experimentation or withdrawal of the product or service and end up in a social network from an opinion, good or bad, about the service or product. And this view can spread quickly by influencing other consumers. The technology alone is not enough to ensure that during that journey the consumer has satisfactory experience that can boost new sales. It is up to the retailer to prepare its numerous business processes and also its organization, composed of people with their due roles and responsibilities, for this new dynamic. For its part, this consumer when perceiving this value offer is willing to reward the retailer through engagement with his brand and new purchases. In this context, among the most important processes to be adapted to the omni-channel are those involved with the supply chain. A perfect synchrony of this chain is what guarantees products, services or both at a fair price, in the right place and at the right time. This study seeks to investigate, through a single case study, how the introduction of the omni-channel is being managed by a brasilian retailer that markets durable goods of several segments. It is demonstrated that there is an alignment between the theory and the practice about supply chain impacts from the implementation of the omni-channel in retail companies and that this strategy can collaborate to meet the demands of new consumers and at the same time provide financial and operational results satisfactory for the retailer.
