Retail ERP/POS Modernization: Avoid the Most Expensive Mistakes

How leaders choose and modernize ERP/POS in retail: integration-first architecture, governance, and change management.

ERP/POS modernization succeeds when leaders design for integration and adoption.

What to get right early

  • Integration map and data ownership.
  • Master data governance (item, pricing, vendors).
  • Phased rollout with readiness gates.
  • Store support model for the first weeks.

Most failures happen when HQ requirements ignore store reality.
