Gerry Weber - The RFID success story continues ...
After five years of successful RFID use, the RFID pioneer re-launches RFID system for 800 stores, laying the ground for future innovations
The RFID pioneer Gerry Weber created a success story! The fashion company is now heralding a new era of success by changing its ERP system. The new ERP system will be rolled out in the summer of 2017, along with a new RFID inventory solution. This is not a restart, but is about raising the successful RFID processes to the next level, explains Michel Feurich. “We have done our homework successfully. Now we want to promote the RFID success story and be more innovative. We have set the course”. With the natural confidence of an RFID pioneer, the CIO talks openly about the reasons for the system change, the transformation process and the visions for the stores of the future. He also explains why Omnichannel still poses a hurdle.
“We are in the middle of a restart. The new retail ERP implementation kick-off had began in early January. By mid-February, the RFID project begun”, says Michel Feurich. The store roll-out of a new ERP solution, starting in the summer of 2017, will combine SAP with a new RFID system from Tyco Retail Solutions. “By changing the system in this way, we are creating a base for the pursuit of more creative innovative solutions.”
Kick-off for new store ERP, roll-out starting in 2017
“The decision to implement a new retail ERP system was made two years ago. The current system is no longer keeping up with today's requirements and the increasing challenges of internationalisation. It cannot keep up in terms of scalability”, says Feurich. Gerry Weber is now changing its ERP system and employs SAP. The existing RFID concept, which started in 2009 as an individual solution on a greenfield site, will not be used anymore because it does not offer a way of integrating RFID into the ERP system. “We need to tackle the RFID issue once again. Fortunately, the time and the market are now ready to use a standard software”, says Feurich, explaining the change to the Tyco RFID solution.
