Variety Wholesalers (VW) has successfully completed the roll-out of RTC's StoreMS POS solution on 1,300 IBM registers in their Roses and Maxway divisions.
RTC's VP of store systems, Duane McGlamery, partnered with Gary Boxler, director of information systems support services for VW, to install StoreMS POS in a total of 287 locations including 116 Roses stores and 171 Maxway/Super 10 stores.
The implementation included not only StoreMS POS, but also RTC's HTP-Link iSeries Communication solution for polling stores and ISD's Transaction Management software. RTC's Consulting Services Group performed the integration between StoreMS POS and JDA's Merchandise Management System (MMS).
"RTC was a true business partner thru the entire project," says Boxler. "Their team always acted with a sense of urgency, and we never had to follow-up to ensure that our priority issues were addressed in a timely manner."
With the installation now complete, StoreMS POS has significantly improved VW's throughput at checkout, enhanced customer service and streamlined store operations. This investment provides VW with a solid platform on which they can continue to build upon in the future, the company said in a release.
