In a recent retail chains study by Retail Technologies Inc., it was found that 52% of mid-sized retailers stated that one of their biggest challenges was keeping up with changing new technology; 46% of larger retailers also faced issues trying to keep up with technology changes.

Alicia Kreisberg, Chief Operating Officer and co-owner of One Step Data, states, "In the computer software and hardware industry, developments move at an exponential rate, with software/hardware life expectancies averaging only 2-4 years."

The retail service and technology provider company's primary objective, according to Kreisberg, is to ensure the success of their customers. "One of the things that will ensure you get the best results is staying current with the latest system advancements. You don't want the very thing that is helping make your business more profitable to keep you from further expansion."

Keeping up with changing retail technology is a costly investment, as retailers need to have current technology stay current. There is often lack of flexibility to implement new changes, and usually it is very time-intensive to integrate the new technology so everything works. And, need I mention the difficulties training employees on a new system?

These sound like daunting problems, but what many retailers haven't realized yet is that it is costing them more money to keep their antiquated systems than it is to get a new system that is flexible enough to meet their needs and growth.

In the way that we try to optimize and streamline our company's response to a situation at hand physically, we should focus on doing the same with the
