Infor witnesses success for retail business in 2017

Retailers benefit from highly aligned omni-channel customer engagement that drives top line results and overall brand experience. Infor Retail is a suite of applications designed to support core operations, management teams, on-the-go district managers, and employees in a revolutionary new way that takes advantage of the latest consumer and business technologies: mobile, social, and cloud.

For retailers looking to take the first step to modernise with cloud-based enterprise software, Project Destination is a new program designed to help retailers understand, plan, and transform their business with Infor from entry point to completion.

With Infor, companies are able to quickly scale operations through science and predictive tools that help get ahead of consumer demands, and allow users to stay agile and fight digital disruption.

“The retail industry has not seen a large-scale, industry-changing new technology platform since the 1990s, and over the past 20 years, both consumer and employee expectations have dramatically changed. Through Project Destination, retailers can untangle their web of outdated, disparate technology systems, and take the first step to modernise with solutions created for mobile, social, and omni-channel use,” said Corey Tollefson, senior vice president and general manager, Infor Retail.

In addition, Infor's human capital management solutions for retail offer tools to attract, retain, develop, and engage talent. In addition to our core Human Resource solutions, Infor's Workforce Management helps optimise in-store staffing, while Infor Talent Science will change the way retailers hire by aligning each associate's personal attributes with their role resulting in increased sales per associate and reduced turnover.

Pilot Flying J is an organisation successfully implementing the Infor Human Capital Management Suite. “Our partnership with Infor has allowed Pilot Flying J to lay the foundation to perform human resource functions more effectively and efficiently. This will help reduce turnover by increasing team member engagement and place more focus on talent management including talent acquisition, goal, performance, and compensation management,” said Mike Rodgers, senior vice president of digital and technology solutions, Pilot Flying J.

In addition, Infor's recent acquisition of Starmount has allowed the company to develop and invest in solutions that streamline operations, and support consistent cross-channel customer interactions. (KD)
