• Description: In today’s omni-channel retail environment, most retailers and distributors struggle to have the right SKU at the right place, in the right quantity, and at the right time to meet the demands of their customers, and there is no one-size fits all answer. Inventory optimization is key to a successful omni-channel retail strategy. However, retailers need to move beyond mere inventory optimization and look at their customer, payment and inventory life cycles. By taking this holistic approach, retailers can ensure a demand-driven supply chain and a positive, seamless customer experience. In this session, learn from retail leaders who are making strides towards supply chain utopia through inventory optimization while gaining increased profits and improved customer service.

Jim Barnes, enVista President and CEO said, “A lot is changing in the customer-centric world of omni-channel retail, and it’s mission-critical for supply chains to keep pace. RILA’s Retail Supply Chain Conference presents an ideal opportunity for supply chain leaders to learn how their peers are responding to omni-channel retail complexity. enVista’s supply chain consulting team looks forward to meeting with attendees and leveraging our deep retail expertise to help enact process and technology improvements that drive profitability and customer service.”

enVista consultants will meet with retail leaders at RILA booth #131.
