Having first served a retailer together with Sarah Touse during the summer of 2010, you can imagine how delighted I am that she's continuing to bring her brilliance to the sector almost a decade and a half later. In her most recent article, she and co-authors Colleen Baum, Tim Lange, and Tabitha S. share how retailers aspiring to achieve e2e excellence must 1) convene cross-functional teams, 2) arm these teams with timely data, tools, and technology that translate across functions, and 3) communicate a shared mission. The article outlines three types of e2e transformations within the retail value chain and identifies a set of actions that retailers can implement to help make this strategic imperative a reality.

Colleen Baum There is nothing more detrimental to a company than an existence of silos. More people and layers add to the lack of clarity, interdepartmental pass offs of large bits of information, time which takes time and is subject to each department or silo’s individual interpretation, ways of working and at times their interest at the expense of the business. Leading to multiple product creation and simply increased time in the lifetime cycle of the product. Post Covid disruptions are still very real and “time” now truly equals money. Streamlining the front end and being deliberate in the Product range and doing the right work at the right time is key to speed and clarity. The more an organization is committed to simplifying the front end the easier it is to execute the mid and back end = low hanging fruits !
