Retail
Retail complexity is not the till — it is everything behind it. We connect POS, warehouse, e-commerce and finance so stock is one number and the customer is one record regardless of where they bought.
- Sector focus
- POS, stock and online joined into one inventory and one customer view.

What we find
The four problems we are usually called in about
Recognisable? Each one has a root cause in process or data design rather than in software capability.
Store and online stock are separate
Two systems, two truths, and a promise to the customer that neither can keep during a sale period.
Daily sales close is manual
Till reconciliation, banking and posting are keyed by hand each morning, so cash variances surface days later.
Replenishment is intuition
Reorder decisions are made from memory rather than velocity, so best-sellers stock out while slow lines occupy the floor.
The customer is anonymous
Loyalty, returns and support each hold a fragment of the customer, so basket history and lifetime value are unknowable.

SUPPLYCase study
One inventory engine behind three sales channels
Wholesale, retail and e-commerce moved onto one Odoo inventory and pricing engine, with integration contracts, batch and expiry control, and margin reported at SKU and customer level.
We had eleven versions of our item master across three companies. Techlyst rebuilt it as one governed standard and then made sure it stayed that way. Stock accuracy went from an argument to a number.
FAQ
Retail, specifically
Yes. We deploy POS with local offline capability and queued sync, so trading continues and transactions reconcile automatically when the link returns.
Usually — we audit terminals, printers and scanners for compatibility first and reuse what is serviceable. Replacement is a recommendation with a reason, not a default.
A pilot store in six to eight weeks, then two to four stores per week on a standard site build with a per-site commissioning checklist.
