Our combined technologies and best-practice knowledge will ensure retailers can put the right product, at the right price, at the right time in the hands of consumers at any point-of-purchase."

The combined ENCORE and VendorNet solution will help retailers enhance their operations by linking inventory across channels including online, store, and dropship suppliers to source products from the most efficient locations.

According to Srini Pallia, Senior Vice President and Head, Retail, CPG, Transportation & Government, Wipro Technologies, "It is Wipro's endeavor to help retailers improve the omni-channel customer experience, which translates into higher sales and better margins. Through the VendorNet partnership, the ENCORE platform will be better equipped to fulfill sales by optimizing inventory to meet online demand and deliver a best-in-class customer experience. The ability to leverage store inventory to augment the online experience, provides enhanced customer experience and meets the dynamic needs of today's cross-channel customers."
