TechNavio today launched its Global Supply Chain Management (SCM) Software Market in the Retail Industry 2011“2015 report based on an in-depth study covering the Americas, and the EMEA and APAC regions. The report aims to aid decision makers™ understanding of the key trends impacting this market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio™s Enterprise Computing team said; RFID tags are evolving as a major technology to track goods and assets in the supply chain. SCM software provides solutions to integrate RFID within retail supply chains. Leading global retailers now use RFID-enabled tags on pallets, cartons, and even individual items. Unlike bar codes, RFID tags can be scanned from several meters away, and they also carry more information. Thus, RFID tags help in the smooth flow of goods across distribution channels.
According to the report, labor productivity is one of the key concerns in distribution centers, which act as the principle link between product manufacturers and consumers. Lack of productivity in the distribution centers at retail outlets leads to several challenges that affect not only product manufacturers, but also the members of the entire supply chain. SCM software helps improve the business processes of a retail organization through quality control, inventory control, and planning and scheduling of operations. Therefore, the need for such process improvement drives retail organizations to adopt SCM software.
Further, the report also discusses that the increase in the complexity of SCM software solutions negatively affects the Global SCM Software market in the Retail industry.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key players.
