Like so many other industries, retail has seen some fundamental changes in customer behaviour and buying habits. Covid19 accelerated the move away from the high street to online shopping and although most of us have returned to the supermarkets, for many other goods online shopping is our first port of call.
Retail contract management
Retail has had to adapt at pace – to scale and flex – creating a raft of new contractual arrangements to ensure streamlined online purchasing, delivery and return options, and compliance with consumer rights. As a result, retailers have to deal with a far greater number of contracts which threaten to dominate the retail landscape to the detriment of smooth supply chain operations, effective marketing and timely fulfilment.
Contract management software can help retailers move away from manual processes, and provide the automation that takes the pressure off day-to-day contract management. Tailored specifically to help retailers, Contract Insight is Four’s contract management software of choice, and we can offer retailers many years of experience across the industry.
