• Inventory Management System

Improve store inventory accuracy and sales, and reduce product stockouts.

Due to the routine handling of products, the inventory accuracy at the store level remains at around 60 percent. Moreover, this was the case before the pressure from omnichannel fulfillment was applied. Activating the store network, which serves as a gateway for commerce often involving digital processing for products purchased online, is a top priority for delivering the omnichannel promise to customers. By ensuring store inventory accuracy, we can expand sales, reduce the risk of stockouts, and decrease the steps involved in in-store replenishment. Using mobile functionalities designed specifically for store employees for receiving and inventory management, we can handle processes such as store replenishment, orders from the website to the store, returns, and transfers for each shipment, case, carton, or item. With omnichannel commerce, the responsibilities of store employees have expanded beyond selling and providing services to customers, including accommodating options such as purchases from the online store, shipments from the store, and shipments to the store. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*

Using intelligent optimization, evaluate many parameters related to fulfillment, transportation, stores, and customers in real time.

Adaptive Network Fulfillment (ANF) uses intelligent optimization to evaluate many parameters related to fulfillment, transportation, stores, and customers in real time, minimizing the impact on the in-store shopping experience and store employees while maximizing order profit margins and profitability. ANF is the final piece of the inventory puzzle for omnichannel retailers, enabling optimized sourcing in addition to providing visibility and availability views of global inventory. Since stores are one of the most important components of an omnichannel retailer's fulfillment network, it is necessary to adjust for the complexities and differences when using stores as opposed to logistics centers for fulfillment. In stores, additional considerations such as past performance in fulfillment, staff workload, in-store traffic, and inventory levels need to be evaluated. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*

• Logistics and warehouse management systems

Manage orders collectively from various sales channels such as EC, online marketplaces, logistics centers (DC), stores, direct shippers, and agents.

Retailers can utilize order management throughout the entire lifecycle of customer orders, from credit fraud checks to payment processing and delivery of purchased items. In "order management," all systems are interconnected, including the creation of transactions with customers, interactions, documentation, and responses. It provides centralized access to all reliable information regarding orders. E-commerce personnel, customers, call center staff, shipping personnel, and store staff can grasp the status of transactions and overall inventory in real-time. By integrating and managing customer orders across all sales channels, brands, and regions within a single system, the omnichannel purchasing experience can be significantly improved. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*

Not the wonderful experience you think, but the experience that the customer desires.

The experiences that customers seek are as diverse as individual personalities. One of the wonderful experiences that customers may envision is a sense of closeness to the brand through high-touch communication. If we could recommend products that align with their preferences based on previous purchase history, the customer's purchase rate would increase. Alternatively, if we can provide such services to customers seeking convenience, they may return to shop with us repeatedly. To serve customers better, it is essential to seamlessly integrate physical stores, online platforms, and mobile services, offering a wide range of fulfillment options from same-day shipping to home delivery. Additionally, we must not forget about customers who want to finish their shopping as quickly as possible or those who might abandon their purchases without hesitation if there are long lines at checkout. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*

Swallow Incubate Co., Ltd. has launched the Swallow Incubate Tech Blog, a technical site covering the implementation of liveness detection, face recognition and image processing. Developers who design and build face recognition systems have told us they lack the information needed to judge which technology to choose and what it can and cannot do. In particular, face recognition and liveness detection (protection against presentation attacks) are separate technologies - a point that is often recognised only at the implementation stage. The blog publishes that material. Our editorial rule is that every article carries implementation code and measured results. It is organised into three categories: Liveness Detection, OpenCV for C++, and OpenCV for C#.
