Lean Store

GK/Retail can be scaled without any limits through the consistent use of its Advanced Business Components (ABC) technology. This enables users to freely decide which components should be used centrally and which ones locally. This allows cost-saving central architectures.  

GK/Retail allows the store architecture to be fully centralized for the first time. As a result, store servers can be moved to enterprise headquarters, which opens up enormous potential with regard to hardware and providing service and support. This reduces the complexity of operations locally and elaborate IT equipment is removed from the stores without imposing any restrictions on their ability to operate.

• The Lean Store Server allows high-performance systems to be used at enterprise headquarters and service and support costs are significantly reduced. IT structures are simplified and the TCO can be reduced in the long term.  

• The Business-Continuity-Technology ensures that the systems in the stores continue to operate, even if they are offline, and there are no restrictions on functions there. Once the online link has been restored, data synchronization with enterprise headquarters takes place automatically.

The Lean Store technology in GK/Retail reduces restrictions in stores, simplifies support significantly and cuts maintenance costs in the long term.
