Retail

Many of the world’s best-in-class retailers—including Barnes & Noble, Best Buy, Gap, JCPenney, Michaels Stores, Payless ShoeSource, VF Corp, and Woolworths South Africa—have turned to i2 for its innovative supply chain management technology and domain expertise.

i2 helps retailers worldwide increase revenue growth, improve supply chain efficiency, and create a superior, differentiated customer shopping experience. Leading retailers and national brand companies use i2 solutions to optimize merchandise planning, buying and assortment, allocation and replenishment, and transportation management processes.

i2 has helped retailers:

Rapidly execute merchandising strategies that enable a customer-centric shopping experience tailored to the store-level, as well as facilitate in-season re-forecasting and corrective pricing, promotions, and inventory actions.

Increase inventory turns and reduce stock-outs and markdowns through consistent management of inventory levels across the supply chain.

Optimize the supply chain structure to support global sourcing and lean supply chain strategies, and reduce concept-to-store cycle time to protect and grow margins.

Reduce costs, improve transport efficiency, and enhance customer satisfaction by creating cost-optimized transportation plans for order fulfillment, procurement, and replenishment based on facility, inventory, and transportation network constraints.

3 of the top 4 U.S. specialty retailers, as well as 4 of the top 7 U.S. general merchandisers, use i2’s retail solutions to achieve world-class business results.

“We’ve gotten much leaner in our supply chain, and not just through a sheer desire to be leaner. We’ve become a lot more prescriptive and precise in how we’re making investments in our inventory. i2 solutions help us keep our assets much more fluid.”
