After considering presentation from Fast Solution consultants, I have concluded that I agree with their recommendation to upgrade our existing DOS system with new POS / OS system. Ultimately, this solution was preferable to the alternatives as it aligns our business model of meeting customer demand with robust manufacturing and distribution. Though our existing model is very much fine and helps us to be a differentiator in the market the added benefits of inventory management and retail transaction interface which comes with new POS / OS system will help in further advancement of the company. With the modest investment and the projected savings further assist in making the choice.
The implementation of POS/OS system will eliminate the time spent on non-value added activities which will again help is in better planning and forecasting. Moreover the overall structure of the company will transformed to lean. The store manager would be able to make decisions based on popular trends they see. The new POS/OS system would also have more information to pinpoint what is selling in more quantities and what it not, having that knowledge would decrease the inefficiencies and promote lean culture which assist in maintain our differentiator image.
Based on the above mentioned advantages I am in favor of upgrading DOS to POS/OS for us and embarace the lean culture which will be brought by the change.
