RETAIL SECTOR

Retail ERP
ERP is implemented heavily in large retail chains These packages help in facilitating the optimization and administration of the internal business processes ERP packages are now a differentiating strategies for most enterprises they act as competitive tools large retail chains An ERP software function through information sharing among different They comprise of function-specific components and can interact with accounts section, order entry, distribution, POS, etc.

Challenges in Retail Sector


2 major challenges are
Survival in the Long run Profitability

Other challenges include: Market competition: understanding the market demand can help improve profitability Margins in this sector are low, inefficiencies/ wastages can lead to losses. Enterprise wide monitoring can help improve the profitability in the long run Regulatory pressures exist in the system, thus visibility need to be present at every level (in terms of reliable information, accessible data, etc.) Continuous monitoring is required in the retail sector In order to address the above problems, and to bring about visibility, efficiency and proper communication within the enterprise, ERP packages can be implemented

Enterprise Application problems in retail


Integration of the various business functions there needs to be synchronization among different business activities that are involved in a retail business. Programmed software are implemented by large retail chains to address this problem The retail chains that have implemented software packages needed some degree of customization to fully integrate their business processes Other major problems include:
High maintenance costs (costly legacy information systems) Outdated architecture Limited scope (legacy systems fall short of the requirements of retail sector) Integration and scalability problems Increased business risk owing to the old and new system (which can cause failure)

Advantages of ERP in retail


Primary
Retail specific components Segment specific expandability option Support for store system

Secondary
Scalability & Configuration Phased implementation support Support for advanced functionality Workflow automation Technology and application integration

Success of an ERP package in retail depends on the IT skills, workforces experience, the training they have undergone to make effective and efficient utilization of information system Training forms the crux of retail ERP, cutting down on training costs may yield disastrous outputs, thus budget should be allocated to meet the training needs in ERP retail implementation

SWOT Retail ERP


Strengths Integrates all the systems, processes Provides the enterprise view of how the work is flowing Streamlines business processes Increases visibility Competitive pricing Opportunities Booming organized retail sector Competition has been growing, ERP can be a differentiator Improves efficiency in the system and helps in improving margins and profitability Weaknesses Training forms the crux of the system Security concerns exist, incase the team is not efficient Cost & time involved Legacy systems

Threats Complexity of the system, ERP success cannot be predicted during implementation Profitability becomes a concern if training costs exceed the revenues Customization is costly affair, thus retail chains prefer to rely on legacy systems

Demand planning and Supply planning


Oracles ERP package is capable of per-item stock monitoring. Oracles demand estimation is made by the module called "Demantra". Basically, this module uses the Bayesian approach. The Bayesian estimation approach is based on combining the historic sales data with planned sales data. Estimation can be made even when no historic data is available. This is done by using the previously planned sales data and the data obtained during sales

To outbound trucks

Steps in Cross Docking


Merchandise cartons that need to be cross docked are pre-packaged by the vendor for a specific store

Merchandise arrives; Merchandise is received and checked

UPC (Universal Product Code) labels on the carton indicate the store to which it is to be sent; the vendor may also affix price tags on each item in the carton

Since the merchandise is ready for sale, it is placed on the conveyor system

The conveyor system routes it from the unloading dock at which it was received to the loading dock for the truck going to the specific store

Challenges in the Implementation Process


Which processes are most important now and why? Does this system meet our needs or go beyond them? Who will be the change champion(s)? Who are the stakeholders? What is the business culture at our company and what are its strengths? What subcultures do we have and what are their strengths? How can we apply those strengths to business change? What cultural attributes are weak or will interfere with the change? What will be the toughest changes, and how will we address them? Who will be responsible for change management?

CASE AAFES

Case: AAFES, retail management system


AAFES retail management system made use of Oracle retail suite to manage its RMS Reasons for choosing Oracle Retail Suite
The processes that were outdated were updated by Oracle retail suite Oracle had advanced retail analytics There were improvements in supply chain Process issue resolution Oracle retail suite reacted well to the shifts in retail

Features of retail management system: Oracle Retail Suite


This retail system managed suppliers and items by locations It made use of centralized system to monitor the inventory levels and meet the daily demand This enterprise solution was successful in integrating key members in supply chain the suppliers, the buyers, and retail locations

Why AAFES needed to optimize its Integrated Supply Chain?

How did Oracles RMS help AAFES bring about new organizational changes?
It addressed the business process changes
New Business Process could
Change the way targets were met, and business was accomplished on daily basis Accomplish new replenishment methods Achieve new item management setup Adopt a new Point of Sales (PoS) Strike new deals

It was all about having the right product, at the right place, at the right time!

Helped structure the team Helped incorporate systems changes Helped centralize buying

1. New System Changes that were brought in


Warehouse replenishment was achieved in all the main stores where it was activated Auto RMS helped in stores replenishment where the stores were activated using POG (Plan-O-Grams)
POG determined the stock assortment, i.e., when the stores activated their replenishment

The pilot phase began in 2009, in 2 of their stores The main aim of AAFES was to grow their business, for this they wanted their new systems, new processes and new teams have everyone working together in the same direction!

Replenisher

Pricing

Forecaster

3. New system changes


The old systems were phased out, and those which were not phased out were fed from the RMS Store ordering of old system was decommissioned Key business changes:
Suppliers could notify buyers or sellers of new items and their costs No contracts for old system procedures All items were replenished in RMS Stores automatically generate Vendor Order number (VON) Line items were received at stores for all retail merchandise Line item details sent systematically to Walker systems Visibility of Store inventory increased after implementing RMS

New Process: Item data management


Merchandise Support Team (MST) Global Data Synchronization (GDS) New Item Induction form Item Approval Process GDS Item Induction Electronic Item Data Entry Experts Merchandise Support Team

The new item setup process is more detailed, thus it was time consuming but the time spent on proper item setup yielded greater benefit to AAFES in the lifecycle of the item

4. Centralized Buying
Centralized buying brought about dynamic changes the way AAFES replenished. Some of the methods used for replenishing are:
Just in Time (JIT) Replenishment Proactive Assortment Planning Offshore replenishment Mass Allocations Thus Lower inventory investments helped reduce costs

Reducing inventory storage and handling costs, improves customer fill rates and AAFES supplies goods that customers actually want Centralized buying could impact
Buyers: to determine the item or store relationships, regarding the funds and space, departmental margins Planners, Allocators and replenishers: plan and procure Pricing groups: help develop strategies, in clearances, competition, and margins Stores: to perform top line sales, expense-control, manage perpetual inventory

AAFES Benefits after implementing Oracle Retail Suite:


Provided End-to-End Supply Chain Management Could incorporate Centralized Buying Could solve critical business problems Helped build a new IT infrastructure for AAFES It implements best retail industry practices Exception reporting information is made available readily Bring about: Data Inventory, Perpetual inventory, and Supply Chain visibility Could incorporate continuous improvements in productivity This resulted in better customer satisfaction over time It brought about Supply Chain Optimization helped adjusting inventory levels, forecasting improved and replenishments were managed by exception Helped in pricing competitively centralized pricing increased visibility

Impact on Retail Operations


Increase in sales revenue was reported by AAFES post implementation Visibility improved Inventory reduced predominantly Markdown reductions were possible Better in-stock position on fast moving items Centralized pricing improved the reaction time to competitors prices
