How Tecbeans designed Rockport Group’s hybris omni-channel offering

Rockport Group is a luxury clothing and Footwear retailer specializing in fine quality fitted clothing. In their stores they offer a personal experience to their customers offering them advice and measurements on fittings as well as providing alterations and personalized services such as made to order and monograms. They understand that their key customer base requires high quality garments, but have little time to shop so they provide services for collection and delivery across their store network, including pressing services and ship from store to home.

Rockport  needed to replicate their in-store offering across all their customer touch-points and required a platform to support this as well as their digital growth plans into new territories. They wanted to overcome the challenges of their existing platform by having a lot more merchandising control over their content and product details.

OBJECTIVES & STRATEGY

• Design a central platform to support international territories for content, product offerings and currency
• Create the process flows to manage a range of different customer interactions such as delivery to store, buy at store and deliver to home and online returns and exchanges
• Suggest the high level architecture of the entire solution including the internal system interfaces and 3rd party services such as payments, e-vouchers, product recommendations and US tax calculations
• Specified all customisations required to ensure the mutli-service and multi-channel experience is delivered by internal teams and systems such as call centre and in-store point of sale
• Integration to over 20 different merchandising and back- office systems to improve sales and site operations respectively
• Publish a full Functional Specification of the entire customer journey and the relevant order process flows and system touch-points

UNIQUE SOLUTION

Workshops were conducted with the client, in order to ensure that we understood the issues currently being faced and what the keys goals of the business were over the next year and then to the next 3 to 5 years.
