The luxury sector is undergoing a transformation that is both profound and quick. The development of sales on the internet and the reinforcement of a differentiating in-store customer experience make omnichannel mastery a must. The challenge of capturing the “millennials” market favors the introduction of innovations such as augmented reality, artificial intelligence or IoT, while developing a sustainable luxury brand image with the responsible sourcing of raw materials, the end of property, recycling….
So many projects where our customers rely on our expertise. The success of these projects depends on the respect of the specific codes of the sector: industrial best practices must be adapted to the artisanal state of mind, creators’ freedom must be guaranteed and brand image preserved.

To master the omnichannel model, luxury players have to meet several challenges, such as the implementation of shared catalogs and data management tools, the homogenization of standards, the definition of a digital management team well positioned within the company, without forgetting a total visibility on stocks. This leads to tools integration projects allowing real-time supervision and for the most advanced, setting up OMS (Order Management System).
The luxury sector constantly reinvents its iconic products in many possible variations, and at an ever-increasing pace (e.g. emergence of jewelry collections). This acceleration leads to a need to revise forecasting models – especially at product launch – to facilitate inventory reallocation based on local sales and to better anticipate supplies: a revamped S&OP!
