Quantum Retail meets with tier 1 retailers at NRF’s Annual Convention & Expo 2010 – for educational sessions about how Q’s system utilizes localization and strategic business practices to bring their assortment and range planning, forecasting, order planning, allocation and replenishment efforts up to the pace of today’s retail.

NEW YORK, NY – January 11, 2010 – Photos cannot even capture how massive this convention is. At Quantum Retail’s booth, there are as many as seven meetings happening at once with tier 1 retailers. Competing with the irksome noise of JDA’s performance stage as it thunders in the background, Quantum Retail has been filling our meeting lounge, demo stations and conference room with retailers seeking a little insight into Quantum’s innovative solutions.

The way Quantum Retail approaches retailing is new to many retailers. While taking today’s rapidly changing retail market into perspective – retailers need a new way of thinking. The old solutions cannot meet the challenges of localization, strategically planned stock, or real-time, location specific inventory execution.

These are areas that retailers need to focus to become competitive and meet the challenges of growth and globalization. All of the 70+ retailers meeting with Quantum Retail today and tomorrow have embraced the reality that now is the time for innovation.

In today’s learning sessions, Quantum learned about retailers specific challenges in their business process, hardships of current legacy systems, concerns about integrating with other vendor solutions and the necessity to find a solution that can address the complexity of retailing in proliferated channels. To address these issues, Quantum shared the intelligence behind our systems, the necessity for a strategic plan for products and processes and showed interested retailers a demo of our unique solutions.

Only smart technology, like Q, has the ability to learn from the unique behaviors of customers and products at a store level perspective. With this understanding – Q uses product strategies to drive and integrate retail processes related to assortment and range planning, forecasting and order planning and allocation and replenishment, all in one dynamic and user-friendly system.

NRF 2009 You came, you saw, we heard

Last week, Quantum Retail joined thousands of others at The BIG Show in New York. While the current economic conditions meant lower attendance overall, from what we saw, there are plenty of retailers who are doing their best not to become casualties in what we will be a tough 2009.

MINNEAPOLIS Jan 22 2009 – Last week, Quantum Retail joined thousands of others at The BIG Show in New York. While the current economic conditions meant lower attendance overall, at the Quantum stand we were kept busy with two very full days of appointments. From what we saw, there are plenty of retailers who are doing their best not to become casualties in what we will be a tough 2009. While not relishing the challenge, it was clear they were going to have to pull out the stops to stay competitive.  In this environment every aspect of a business needs to be looked at. While some of our visitors were aware of the benefits of having an intelligent inventory fulfillment, they didn’t realize just how much bottom line benefit it could generate until they spoke to Quantum client, Spencer Maynard from New Look.

Spencer also gave a talk about his area of Fast Fashion which proved very popular. Access Spencer’s presentation here. It’s definitely worth listening to.
