WEBINAR ON-DEMAND
Embrace Business
Complexity With Real-time Inventory Data
Unlock the power of your entire retail operations
From endless aisle and BOPIS, to mixed carts and tap-to-pay, customers expect seamless omnichannel experiences. But without a single view of inventory availability, delivering on these expectations is tricky and can lead to missed sales.
Referencing a case study of notable furniture retailer, Conn’s HomePlus, this webinar will explore how a consolidated inventory view plays a key role in unlocking the power of your brand’s retail operations.
You’ll Learn How:
- Accurate inventory visibility can help overcome the inherent challenges of a multi-variable product set, particularly for the in-store shopper
- Routing logic and network-driven fulfillment can optimize your supply chain for efficiency
- A real-time view of inventory empowers both associates and customers

Fluent Commerce is a global software company focused on inventory data management at scale and distributed order management (DOM) for commerce.
Both B2C and B2B organizations rely on their cloud native, highly flexible and fully scalable solutions to transform fulfillment complexity into a competitive advantage. Fluent Order Management provides accurate, real-time inventory availability across all locations, order orchestration, fulfillment optimization, fulfillment location management, in-store pick and pack, customer service, and reporting. This enables retailers, brands, and B2B organizations to ensure they never oversell or undersell and to deliver their orders profitably every time.
Mercaux is transforming legacy Point of Sale into a suite of composable ‘Points Of Service’ solutions that supports a customer’s entire in-store path-to-purchase, from product discovery and personalisation through to checkout.
Given the business critical nature of your in-store transaction capabilities, Legacy POS is no longer relevant in the modern retail environment - basic functionalities, exceptionally high cost of ownership and slow upgrade schedules are prohibitive to a retail industry that needs to transform quickly. As a result, retailers are turning towards best-in-class composable architectures to bring a better in-store experience and deliver additional business benefits with speed and agility through Self-Service, Assisted-Service and Checkout-as-a-Service solutions.

The Alliance aims to educate and support the industry as a whole on what to look out for when moving from legacy infrastructure and going composable, including when, where and how to start and select partners. Our role is more important than ever as adoption of MACH continues apace. The Alliance is a vendor-neutral institution that provides resources, education and guidance through industry experts to support companies on their journey.
