IDC PlanScape: The Retail Infrastructure Foundation for Digital Transformation
This IDC PlanScape addresses the need to assess retail infrastructure as a foundation for digital transformation (DX)."Retailers are trying to make sense of their infrastructure needs to ensure that they have a sound foundation for digital transformation," said Robert Eastman, research manager, IDC Retail Insights. "Retailers can — and many do — respond to the next urgent need as it rears its head. A more solid and future-ready retail infrastructure comes, however, from better planning and from looking holistically at what the state of your infrastructure is and where it needs to be. This IDC PlanScape provides some framework for looking at your retail infrastructure holistically."
