HOUSTON, Oct. 24, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Riversand, a cloud-native Master Data Management and Product Information Management provider, is proud to announce the latest implementation of its comprehensive Product Information Management (PIM) solution for Arco, experts in safety and the UK's leading supplier of safety equipment, workwear, safety boots and shoes, gloves and maintenance supplies.
With robust sales and a leadership position within the market for safety equipment, workwear and supplies in 100 countries worldwide, Arco saw the potential to further increase sales, by improving their own operational efficiencies through bold digital transformation dubbed the 'Digital First Strategy'. Arco launched, as part of this program, Riversand Product Information Management (PIM) as the solution to digitize and harmonize their product information across channels, regions and internal systems.
"The PIM platform is a key component of our Digital First initiative, to make product information much more accessible to our customers and across our information supply chain," said Richard Martin, Digital Director, Arco. "Arco is investing over £20 million in the digital transformation of our business in order to meet the needs of our customers in the digital era."
By step-changing the internal creation and flow of product information, Arco is in the process of digitizing and harmonizing their product information. The goal is to deliver multiple benefits, including Arco's ability to publish their new website for the UK and Ireland markets with digital, enriched and harmonized product information, resulting in a better customer journey and enhanced customer experience. Process improvements have also improved internal ways of working resulting in efficiencies and stronger collaboration around product information.
"We are excited about our customer Arco and the establishment of their PIM Program as a fundamental building block of Arco's Digital First Vision. The PIM solution creates business value through better enriched product content, shorter time to market and smarter product data processes", said Sachin Kumar, Senior Director - Customer & Partner Success Europe at Riversand. "This allows Arco to execute on their omni-channel digital strategy much more effectively than any time in the past."
