OmnichannelPlatformforRetailChain

Developed an integrated omnichannel retail platform that increased online sales by 120% and improved customer retention by 35%.

Industry

Retail & E-commerce

Solution

We developed a comprehensive omnichannel platform that unified the retailer's online and offline operations. The solution included a redesigned e-commerce platform, mobile applications for customers and store associates, and a centralized inventory management system. The platform enabled seamless customer experiences such as buy online, pick up in-store (BOPIS), ship from store, and in-store returns for online purchases. Advanced analytics and personalization engines provided consistent, tailored experiences across all touchpoints, while real-time inventory visibility prevented stockouts and improved fulfillment efficiency.

Timeline

14 months from concept to full implementation

Team

10 developers, 4 UX/UI designers, 3 data scientists, 5 integration specialists

The Challenge

A national retail chain with over 200 physical stores was struggling to compete with online-only retailers. Their existing e-commerce platform was disconnected from in-store systems, creating inconsistent customer experiences and operational inefficiencies. Inventory management was fragmented, leading to stockouts and customer dissatisfaction. The retailer needed a unified omnichannel solution to provide seamless shopping experiences across all touchpoints.

Our Approach

  • Analyzed customer journeys across all shopping channels to identify pain points
  • Developed a unified data architecture to connect online and offline systems
  • Created a centralized inventory management system with real-time updates
  • Implemented personalization engines to deliver consistent experiences across channels
  • Designed mobile applications for both customers and store associates
  • Established unified customer profiles with cross-channel purchase history
