The success of this strategy requires a complete overhaul of many activities, both at the point of sale (professionalization of teams and layout of routes at the point of sale) and at the level of central functions (logistics, transport) and management functions (orchestration of orders, dynamic choice of sampling points).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How we can help<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Argon &amp; Co supports its clients in the assessment and implementation of e-commerce strategies:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Definition of the key components of the e-commerce strategy (customer promise, the role of points of sale, central logistics, transport and suppliers)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Modeling the cost\/inventory\/service impacts of deploying your e-commerce strategy and evaluating the necessary investments (logistics, IT systems)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assistance in the framing and selection of the best tools (WMS, TMS, WHO, carrier interfaces, tracking, after-sales service) or formalization of specifications to develop existing tools<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Improving the efficiency and competitiveness of e-commerce operations in points of sale and central logistics: logistics organization, optimization of physical operations (picking, packing, transport), opportunities for mechanization and automation<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Structuring dashboards for management or operational staff to quickly identify deviations or dysfunctions<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div id=\"gtx-trans\" style=\"position: absolute; left: 489px; top: 666.375px;\">\n<div class=\"gtx-trans-icon\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introduction and challenges With sustained growth since 2010, e-commerce has become an integral part of corporate strategy.
