SAP AG announced that Coldwater Creek, a leading specialty women's apparel retailer in the US, will adopt the SAP NetWeaver platform as the strategic foundation to drive immediate cost savings by simplifying integration efforts and align around an enterprise service-oriented architecture (enterprise SOA) to create agility and flexibility across the organization.
In an increasingly competitive environment in which retailers are looking to reduce operational costs while increasing customer value and improving margins, Coldwater Creek has selected SAP NetWeaver to provide one common platform for composing new business processes, seamlessly integrating applications and supporting flexible business strategies.
The announcement was made at Retail Systems 2006 Conference and Exposition, being held in Chicago, Illinois, May 21-24.
Coldwater Creek conducted an extensive search of business software providers to address its business needs, as the company continues to expand its multi-channel enterprise. As it adds new retail stores, pursues brand and line extensions and continues its excellent customer service, the company is looking for an experienced partner to provide the necessary technology, tools and retail expertise to gain and sustain a competitive advantage.
With more than 3,200 retailers worldwide running SAP applications, SAP was the clear choice to help Coldwater Creek focus completely on its customers while cutting costs and enabling growth.
