Packaged Merchandising Implementation
Our Merchandising Cloud implementation package provides retailers with the ability to efficiently and cost effectively implement the Oracle Retail Merchandising Cloud Solution leveraging SkillNet’s accelerators. Carefully tailored to each customer’s specific requirements it utilises pre-built and pre-packaged deliverables to accelerate the project and reduce overall risk.
Since a Merchandising solution is at the core of a retailer’s IT landscape, we take a holistic approach to any implementation. Our team not only focuses on the core Merchandising solution but also ensures that any satellite applications, extensions, integrations, data and reports can also be deployed on the cloud to provide a total cloud solution.
