Background: UrbanRetail, a popular urban clothing store with a significant physical presence, noticed that long checkout lines and wait times were a persistent issue, impacting customer satisfaction. They approached us to modernize their in-store purchase system.

Challenge:

  1. Speeding up the checkout process without compromising security.

  2. Integrating the new system with existing inventory management.

  3. Ensuring the solution is scalable across all UrbanRetail locations.

Solution:

  1. Self-Checkout Kiosks: We introduced touch-screen kiosks equipped with barcode scanners. Customers could quickly scan, bag their items, and pay via multiple methods, including cards, mobile payments, or NFC.

  2. Real-Time Inventory Integration: The kiosks were synchronized with UrbanRetail's inventory system. This allowed for real-time stock updates, ensuring efficient inventory management.

  3. Staff Handheld Devices: To assist those unfamiliar with the self-checkout process, store staff were equipped with handheld devices. These devices also facilitated on-the-spot checkouts for customers, reducing the need to queue.

  4. Cloud-Based Scaling: The entire system was built on a cloud platform, ensuring easy replication and updates across all store locations.

Outcome:

Post-implementation, UrbanRetail observed a 65% reduction in average checkout times. Customer feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with a noted appreciation for the convenience and efficiency of the new system. The dual benefit of enhanced customer experience and efficient inventory management led to a 20% increase in monthly sales.
