RETAIL CHALLENGES: FORGING CLOSER RELATIONSHIPS WITH SUPPLIERS (MARKET FOCUS) 7
Summary 7
Proliferation of information fuels consumer demand: Pressure is passed down the supply chain 7
Growth of the Internet, and the rise in standard of living has generated aspirations that drive customers expectations 7
Retailer-supplier relationships are stereotypically adversarial - easy to understand given modern day market pressures 8
Was EDI the first example? 9
But the middle men came back: eMarket places promised much but never got the model right to take them to the mainstream 9
Transora (www.transora.com) 11
More than 50 large multinational companies are owners and users of Transora, including Unilever, Kraft, Pepsi, Coca-Cola, Mars, Kelloggs, Danone, Procter & Gamble, and Bush Brothers. Operating in 7 languages, Transora has interoperability projects underway with CPGmarket and GlobalNetXchange (GNX). Transora customers include GS1 [4] Member Organizations, Manufacturers, and Retailers of all sizes. The e-market was launched in 2000 in Chicago and has offices in Brazil, Mexico, France, and the United Kingdom. On May 13th 2005, Transora and UCCnet agreed to form a single organization that can more effectively serve companies seeking to realize the value of data synchronization. 11
Fickle consumers dictate a need for flexible relationships 13
Private labels focus on lowest cost provision but can also mean less loyalty to suppliers 13
Has mutual collaboration been sacrificed for margin? It may look that way, but only because demand or need always precedes the solution 14
Perhaps mutual convenience is NOT dead, as Our research demonstrates 14
Retailer-supplier activities in 2006 hint at widespread implications for the future 16
External collaboration: For EMEA retailers it didnt seem a high priority in 2004/5 16
latest survey (Q2 2006) shows an appetite for addressing other elements of supplier relationships 16
Supplier consolidation 17
New suppliers 17
Sourcing strategy 18
Ethical and green strategies 18
To conclude: Closer relationships are needed, but technology is shaping the definition of closer 19
RETAIL TECHNOLOGIES: FORGING CLOSER RELATIONSHIPS WITH SUPPLIERS (TECHNOLOGY FOCUS) 20
Summary 20
The Extended Retail Industry (ERI) provides a way of thinking that will drive IT strategies 20
A mutually inclusive market vision needs a collaborative technology vision 21
A one thousand foot view of IT in the ERI 21
SRM can support retailer-supplier relationships but should never be a one off hit 23
The evolving market needs evolving functionality, which means building-in appropriate processes 23
Forecasting needs to account for can or cannot do as well as will need 24
Ability to risk manage needs to straddle people, process and technology 24
Partner Relationship Management has relevance but has struggled to separate fully from CRM 25
Customer and supply chain analytics can deliver collaborative relationship advantages 27
Customer analytics 27
Supply chain analytics 27
Retail evolution in so far as maturity of data goes is set for a collaborative outburst 28
Solutions and partnerships announced in 2006 sets the retail specific BI ball rolling 29
How can collaboration become lowest cost to include the smallest of suppliers? 30
How do retailers get beyond viewing data as another revenue stream? 30
Smaller suppliers are often very non-IT but these relationships stand to be most improved 30
Mega ROI doesnt need mega cost - but there are absolute minimum standards to attain for suppliers 31
How then, can an electronic retail-supplier relationship be mutually inclusive and affordable? 31
