Our beliefs
The retail sector is undergoing constant change: distribution Omnichannel, new consumption patterns, increased competition.... Companies in this sector need to speed up the time-to-market of their projects, and transform their organization for greater agility and efficiency. What's more, new ways of working (work hybridization, flexibility) add the need to strengthen collaboration and the associated tools. New IT assets (cloud, systems APIs, security, data governance) are revolutionizing the way IT architectures are built.
At Univers Retail, we're convinced that knowledge of the retail business makes it easier to take ownership of a project, and to manage it while taking account of the business challenges and associated risks.
