Thynk Active<\/a>, an independent consulting and solutions company focused on working directly with retailers, announces that it will partner with online retailer Backcountry to help execute Backcountry\u2019s brick-and-mortar vision of highly personalized, expert-driven shopping experiences for its outdoor lifestyle customer base. As part of this process, Thynk Active helped select Oracle Retail<\/a> Xstore POS systems and SkillNet Solutions<\/a> as Backcountry\u2019s implementation partners. The selection of Oracle\u2019s retail solutions<\/a> will ensure a world class omni-channel experience<\/a> for the company\u2019s customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thynk Active helped define the focus of Backcountry\u2019s brick-and-mortar journey. Its cross functional selection team then assessed multiple vendors based on how each product addressed Backcountry\u2019s functional and technical requirements. The agile request for information process helped the team short list vendors that were a strategic match to Backcountry under an accelerated timeline. Apart from developing the request for information, Thynk Active also supported Backcountry\u2019s program by identifying key goals and objectives, building the list of unique requirements, drafting customized demonstration scripts, managing the scoring process and creating a summary of vendor responses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs we expand our brick-and-mortar presence, we were looking for a point-of-sale (POS) solution suite that would extend our signature online offerings to our stores. This required a store solution that is functionally feature-rich with strong omni-channel capabilities and the ability to access outside systems,\u201d says Rakshith Adyar, director of engineering at Backcountry. \u201cBeing able to access outside systems within the POS, such as an integration with our new loyalty program, Expedition Perks, is key to providing a seamless omni-channel experience. Thynk Active helped us focus and ask the right questions so that we could identify the unique features of the solutions that would complement our overall omni-channel strategy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Backcountry has begun a major brick-and-mortar retail expansion from their direct channel roots, with the opening of three stores in Park City, Utah, West Valley City, Utah and Boulder, Colorado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe often run vendor selection projects to replace legacy systems that have been in place and institutionalized for years. In such cases, a major challenge is moving a retailer from processes that may have been pieced together to industry best practices,\u201d says Charlie Daggs, chief consulting officer of Thynk Active. \u201cWhat was unique in this opportunity was working with Backcountry\u2019s new, but highly experienced store IT and operations teams to think strategically about building new processes and technology. Oracle Xstore should provide a strong foundation as Backcountry becomes a world class omni-channel specialty retailer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
