At a glance
The story
The healthcare retailer got a turnkey service that included a solution choice, implementation, end-users education, ongoing support, and evolution that allowed its online sales to be backed by an efficient fulfilment process.
The situation
• The healthcare retailer needed to automate a fulfillment process for sales made using its Magento 2 based transactional website.

• Cyper needed to find a solution that would allow its ongoing evolution and support within continuously scaling and evolving business processes.
• The healthcare retailer needed to ensure the solution adoption within the shortest possible period of time (that being said, the end-users’ education was an essential part of the service package).
• The healthcare retailer needed to seamlessly continue its operation while the integration process was taking place.
Cyper’s approach
Step 1: Healthcare retailer digital ecosystem analysis
Cyper’s experts conducted several workshops with the representatives of the healthcare retailer to analyse:

• Other integrations related to e-commerce and omnichannel enablement.
Step 3: Order Management System implementation, support and sustainability assessment

• Do they have a person who will be an internal Order Management System project manager responsible for implementation, users’ education, and ongoing support?
• What are they ready to do in house, and what will they want to allocate to software providers and software integrators?
Step 4: Healthcare retailer budget assessment
Cyper’s experts analysed, with the healthcare retailer’s representatives, what budget the organization was going to allocate to initial implementation and to subsequent evolution and support.
Step 5: Healthcare retailer Order Management Systems’ solution types analysis
