Retail

Improve your decision making and service to your operations and customers with GIS location-based analysis.

Transforming your use of geospatial data for site selection and management

When choosing a retail location, a great number of factors needs to be considered to increase chances of finding a location that helps your business succeed. Location quality is one of those factors and using geospatial data in a smart way has therefore become essential for any modern retail company. GIS location-based analysis can provide additional insights into your data, ultimately enabling you to improve your decision making and service, to both your operations and customers.

Avineon has been assisting clients in the retail industry for over 20 years, primarily in terms of site selection and management, data management, visualization, and application venues. We add value to your retail operations by:

 

  • Expanding the management and integration of mission-critical geospatial and business data.
  • Developing and instituting powerful tools and techniques for an improved analysis.
  • Crafting and deploying state-of-the-art applications to serve both internal and external constituents.

 

Our collaborative methodology has proven to be successful, addressing client-specific goals and demands through our (geospatial) data services and applications. 

Real Estate Divisions in Large Retail Firms

Large retail companies are often as much real estate firms as they are product based, since owning, leasing, and managing properties is of paramount importance to their operations. Avineon can help your business in many technical areas related to geospatial growth and support for your real estate operations, mainly focusing on site management, analysis, and selection.

We help transform the way you look at your data, ultimately helping you to make better decisions and communicate principal information in an intuitive way. Our solutions include state-of-the-art technology to produce heat maps, advanced data visualizations, mobile applications, and more.

Our Approach

Many of our retail clients have distinct needs, focused on specific areas, and most often work with a team that involves high level internal staff. In many cases, needs focus on inserting and leveraging geospatial data and application components into existing applications and processes. Avineon hence puts in place a very flexible approach, focused on putting in place the best qualified staff for your needs. Avineon also assists in the evaluation of data, best practices, and new technologies and capabilities to plan for the refinement and expansion of your valuable data and tools, developed and foreseen for future implementation.

 

We are excited about the use of advanced visualizations in the retail industry, ultimately helping to promote understanding and enhance decision making. We are proud to say that we have had the opportunity to build some enormously powerful visualization tools for our clients. When approaching your retail projects, we always have these new ways of data management and communication in mind.

 

Our Solutions for Retail

Avineon has delivered focused solutions for our clients in the retail industry for many years. Our solutions encompass both the spectrum of geospatial data and components as well as many other related technologies and services.

We focus on providing total solutions for our clients and apply our knowledge and experience in every venue that is part of that solution. Our solutions focus on three main domains: 

Design

Within the context of working within an existing retail environment and team, we always focus up front on the evaluation, ramifications, and design of all deliverables to identify and meet client-specific needs.

Application Development and Automation

We identify, evaluate, capture, and analyze requirements for your mobile/web/enterprise applications. We also develop the required wireframe and UI mock-ups, and plan for and specify your applications targeted for implementation.

We investigate and specify the use of advanced data visualizations and analytics and investigate and specify the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques to enhance your existing analysis, communication, and potential for data visualization tools.

Data Services

We evaluate and plan for the update, manipulation, and loading of existing geospatial and other data as well as the development and/or acquisition and integration of new data.

Enterprise Solutions

Our enterprise solutions for retail focus on systems engineering and cloud migration services. We conduct the evaluation, planning, and development of specifications for future updates and system improvements and/or data and application migration to cloud resources (such as Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services).
