EPOS Selection
Martec has extensive experience in implementing POS (EPOS) and in-store systems in both food and non-food retailing.
Current POS and in-store systems offer significant opportunities for retailers to reduce costs, improve customer service and increase sales. There are, however, major potential problems and risks involved. Exploiting the available technology is essential for survival in these competitive times but the danger of extremely expensive errors in the selection and implementation of new systems is very real.
Martec helps clients avoid the implementation issues and pitfalls that arise commercially, technologically and/or contractually. We help our clients plan, buy and implement wisely. Areas where we advise and assist include:
- Identifying the business goals for a new in-store system
- Defining new and improved business processes
- Producing Requests For Proposals (RFP) and Invitations to Tender (ITT)
- Identifying the relevant hardware and software suppliers
- Helping review and evaluate responses
- Evaluating costs and benefits
- Negotiating the price
- Negotiating the contract
- Project managing the implementation
