Retail Operations in a Purpose-Led World: Key Insights from the IDC European Retail Executive Digital Summit 2022

This IDC Perspective recaps key insights from the IDC European Retail Executive Digital Summit 2022, held on September 22, 2022. Retailers are facing the challenges of increasingly demanding customers, greater accountability toward society, growing competitive pressure, and tighter margins. Companies are caught between a rock and a hard place as adverse macroeconomic factors reduce margins and sales expectations. Changes in consumer behavior translated into more demanding customers. In this environment, differentiation becomes key, and purpose-led retail is now more important than ever. During the summit, participants discussed how purpose-led retail is evolving and how it translates into retail and CPG companies' key operational priorities in today's omni-channel environment, addressing customer experience, employee experience, the new role of the physical store, online-offline integration, and logistics and fulfillment."Operating with a sense of purpose becomes key for retailers to define who they are and what they stand for in the eyes of customers, partners, competitors, and society. Purpose is a key message with multiple implications as it determines how retailers should run key omni-channel operations pillars such as customer and employee experience, online-offline integration, and logistics and fulfillment capabilities," said Filippo Battaini, research manager at IDC Retail Insights.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
