Advisory built around one decision at a time.
Every engagement is scoped to a specific tool decision — not a generic retainer. Pick the service that matches where you are today.
Software selection & RFP management
End-to-end management of a tool selection — from requirements gathering through shortlisting, RFP issuance, and vendor scoring. Used for pricing, ERP, CRM, loyalty, and logistics decisions alike.
- Requirements matrix aligned to your commercial goals
- RFP document and vendor Q&A management
- Weighted scorecard across 3–5 shortlisted vendors
Pricing & revenue tool strategy
Evaluation of competitive pricing, repricing, and markdown optimisation platforms — tested against your actual margin rules, category structure, and competitor set.
- Pricing rule audit against candidate platforms
- Pilot design using your live product catalogue
- Margin-impact estimate per shortlisted vendor
ERP & operations advisory
Selection support for order management, finance, and warehouse systems — with particular attention to integration load and peak-season resilience.
- Integration map across existing systems
- Peak-load stress scenario built into pilot criteria
- Implementation timeline and staffing review
CRM & loyalty strategy
Selection and architecture guidance for CRM and loyalty platforms, with a focus on how customer data will flow between the two — the most common point of failure in Nordic retail stacks.
- Customer data flow diagram, current and proposed
- Loyalty mechanics fit-check against your customer base
- Vendor shortlist with integration risk flagged per option
Vendor negotiation & contract review
Support during commercial negotiation once a preferred vendor is identified — pricing structure, SLA terms, data ownership, and exit clauses.
- Contract redline against known problem clauses
- SLA and usage-limit terms benchmarked against market norms
- Negotiation position and fallback options
Post-selection implementation oversight
Continued involvement through onboarding and go-live, tracking the new platform against the requirements that won it the contract in the first place.
- Go-live checklist tied back to original requirements
- Fortnightly implementation check-ins
- Vendor accountability log through stabilisation period
