\n

A multi-brand global leader in the\u00a0<\/span>fashion industry<\/span><\/a>,\u00a0operating over 1,100 retail stores and generating more than\u00a0$10 billion\u00a0in annual revenue,\u00a0faced mounting challenges as it expanded. Despite its success, the company lacked visibility into inbound shipments across its seven brands,\u00a0<\/span>hindering logistics<\/span><\/a>, production operations, and merchandise planning teams from\u00a0<\/span>efficiently managing inventory<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0Data was siloed across seven disparate ERP systems, and key shipment updates from drayage and shipping partners were often unavailable.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To solve this, the client partnered with Clarkston to design and implement a scalable, cross-brand reporting solution. The primary\u00a0objectives\u00a0were to\u00a0consolidate\u00a0data from multiple ERP systems,\u00a0establish\u00a0standardized shipping milestones, and deliver actionable reports to\u00a0<\/span>support decision-making<\/span><\/a>\u00a0across the supply chain.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Clarkston began by creating a business case and project charter to align stakeholders. From there, the team gathered requirements across all seven brands and architected a scalable data warehouse\u00a0<\/span>to centralize all supply chain data<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0The solution included developing four uniform, user-friendly\u00a0reports\u00a0and\u00a0establishing\u00a017 consistent shipping milestones applicable across brands. Clarkston also provided leadership in data integration testing, conducted end-user training, and led\u00a0hypercare\u00a0efforts post-implementation to\u00a0<\/span>ensure system adoption and stability<\/span><\/a>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As a result, the Corporate Logistics team gained access to real-time shipment milestones across all brands\u00a0to enable supply chain\u00a0visibility that had not previously existed. The centralized data warehouse not only supported the immediate\u00a0<\/span>reporting needs<\/span><\/a>\u00a0but also served as a foundation for\u00a0<\/span>future analytics initiatives<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0The Production Operations team saw a significant reduction in manual effort, moving from managing reports across seven ERPs to\u00a0utilizing\u00a0four standardized dashboards.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This initiative empowered the organization with the visibility, efficiency, and scalability needed to support continued growth in a fast-paced\u00a0<\/span>retail environment<\/span><\/a>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
