Sketch Consultancy: Streamline your Retail Operations

CIO Vendor The second decade of the 21st century has witnessed a dramatic transformation in retail sector driven by economic, technological and consumer changes. Rising customers’ information, growing consumer expectations, new ways of shopping, increasing global competition and declining margins are just a few of the hallmarks of this transformation which are influencing the entire competitive landscape. As the customer expectations are growing, there has also been a remarkable rise in their needs and demands. This scenario has caused the global retail giants to invest more in core retail functions, thus helping the retail sector to grow faster. Today, while there are several vendors out there who are offering high-end business consultancy services to help the retailers achieve both customer and operational excellence; most of these are not even fully equipped to address the core retail functions. As a result selecting the right consultant becomes an extremely puzzling task for the retailers.
