Cloud software developer Infor has partnered with Crate & Barrel to help the home specialist take a new approach to retail technology.
Crate & Barrel will use Infor CloudSuite Retail, a new software product designed as the format for interactions with store employees and consumers, providing a modern foundation for omnichannel retailing and machine learning.
The demand for consistent, accurate and engaging product information across multiple touch points is paramount to successfully interacting with consumers today, Infor noted. As retailers continue to rely on big data, machine learning with unlimited attributes will help create even better shopping experiences. Infor is working with Crate & Barrel to create satisfying experiences for customers and stakeholders, integrating to the retailer’s network and sourcing information from multiple suppliers to bring new products to the market effectively.
“When the opportunity arose to work alongside Infor to create a next generation system built upon 21st century thinking, we were excited,” said Mike Relich, Crate & Barrel COO. “Infor’s end user approach to development will be combined with our knowledge of what goes into unique product offerings to produce a user experience that is not only beautiful but one that allows us to disrupt the industry.”
