Oracle solutions make a difference at Lids

US retailer Lids Sports Group is rolling out Oracle solutions as it looks to make its entire inventory of team-specific sports apparel and memorabilia available in-store, online, or via mobile.

As part of a technology upgrade that includes a migration to Oracle’s MICROS Xstore (now Oracle Retail Xstore), Lids rolled out MICROS Retail Locate (now Oracle Retail Order Broker Cloud Service), enabling it to nearly double the number of product SKUs available for sale online by exposing inventory in all Lids stores as well as throughout its supply chain. “Oracle Retail solutions have made a dramatic difference in how we do business, both with regard to our internal systems and in relating to customers,” says Larry Havlik, vice president, IT and systems, Lids Sports Group. “This is a significant step toward driving growth, by expanding the items we offer and giving customers the full benefit of our locations, in-store service, and e-commerce site.”

Retail should not be a high-risk occupation. As a company, we are focused on listening to our colleagues and customers to help them with the issues they are facing in-store and so far, the feedback on our body cameras has been excellent. They act as a great visual deterrent, help to de-escalate situations and overall, this project has significantly aided our goal to make the retail environment safer.
