Aptos’ leading retail technology and BRP’s strategy and implementation expertise offer retailers a complete solution to leverage innovative omnichannel technology to improve the customer experience
ATLANTA — December 18, 2018 — Aptos, Inc., a recognized market leader in retail technology solutions, and BRP, an innovative retail management consulting firm, today announced an alliance to help retailers quickly adapt their operations to meet elevated customer expectations. The customer journey and associated expectations continue to rapidly evolve — driving a major transformation in retail. However, the legacy retail applications and infrastructure still in place at many retail organizations are not properly equipped to support changing retail models or continuously evolving customer expectations.
“Retailers recognize they need to quickly adapt to shifting customer expectations; however, the process to transform their operations seems daunting based on their current IT demands,” said Aptos CEO and culture leader Noel Goggin. “The combination of innovative technology from Aptos and expert consulting services from BRP offers retailers a proven path forward to rapidly transform their businesses to meet new customer expectations.”
“Yesterday’s retail model is dead. The customer journey has changed, driven in large part by mobile technology, and retailers’ need to accelerate the transformation of their organizations, business processes and technology to align with the demands of their customers,” said Brian Brunk, Principal, BRP. “Agility is the key to successful retail transformation and must permeate the entire organization. Victory belongs to the agile.”
Aptos and BRP have recently collaborated on innovative POS implementation projects that leveraged an Agile Approach, which helped the retailers deploy POS software 50 percent faster than traditional efforts. Aptos and BRP’s Agile Approach enables organizations to get to market faster by encouraging cross-organizational teamwork, collaboration and adaptability, all while ensuring better organizational ownership and more efficient adoption of newly implemented solutions. With significantly faster project completion times, retailers reduce the associated risks and costs throughout the lifecycle of the project.
