Successful order management projects are unique in their ability to create brand loyalty by demonstrating a unified commerce approach, spanning pre- and post-sales. Intelligent fulfillment is also essential to organizations selling complex configurable offerings, due to assembly and fulfillment workflows that may span multiple facilities and planning systems.

THE PERFECT ORDER – WHAT IS IT?
ORDER MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS PROVIDE THE LOGIC
AND WORKFLOW NEEDED TO DRIVE THIS DEMAND
Ship to a home from a sourced store to sell down excess inventory and/or
minimize shipping time and costs.
Place an order in a non-store channel (e.g., website, mobile, social, or catalog/call
center) and pick it up in a physical location (e.g., store, warehouse, locker, etc.).
Begin an order via one channel (e.g., online) and complete it in another (e.g., working
with a store associate who accesses and completes the order on a tablet in the store).

CLIENT SUCCESS STORY
SPECIALTY HOME DÉCOR RETAILER
With more than 300 stores in the U.S., our client embarked on an
initiative to further grow its eCommerce capabilities and improve
digital customer experience to better compete.
To improve scalability and eCommerce functionality, we
implemented IBM Integration Bus as part of a larger eCommerce
fulfillment system with IBM Sterling Order Management.
From an integration perspective alone, the client’s development
time was cut by 10% and time to implement integration services for
Sterling OMS dropped by 25%.
The now-seamless omni-channel customer experience resulted in
reduced costs and quicker order delivery, significantly improving
customer satisfaction and engagement.

CLIENT SUCCESS STORY
SPECIALTY APPAREL RETAILER
Our client, which sells footwear, headwear, sports apparel, and
accessories in more than 2,400 retail stores throughout the U.S.,
Canada and the U.K., suffered from an inefficient legacy order
management system.
Leveraging our expertise and supply chain experience, we assessed
current capabilities and business requirements and determined the
right approach for implementing IBM Sterling Order Management.
Through leading the end-to-end OMS implementation that integrated
with a number of complementary systems, the platform has positioned
the client to win a multi-million, multi-year fulfillment contract from a
major athletic shoe manufacturer.
The client is now able to coordinate and customize the fulfillment
processes across store, call center and online channels through
providing a single view of supply/demand/ order information.

CLIENT SUCCESS STORY
LARGEST RETAIL FARM AND RANCH
STORE IN THE U.S.
The company operates more than 1,200 retail stores in 45 states
and needed an order management system that could handle
growing demand across multiple selling channels, with the goals of
achieving an inventory view across all demand and fulfillment
channels, reducing product fulfillment costs, and improving
profitability.
With IBM Sterling Order Management, the client has reduced
fulfillment cost per item resulting in an expanded web catalog and
improved profitability. The project initiated a vendor drop ship
platform which allows for further catalog expansion without
inventory investment, and has the foundation for further expansion
of its omni-channel retail business.
