Sinopharm Pharmacy has standardized its operations using Oracle® Retail Merchandising and Oracle E-Business Suite Financials 12.1 to support long-term growth and core merchandising and financial strategies.

Oracle will provide merchandise financial planning, assortment planning, size profiling and optimization systems. It's a full suite of retail business applications so that supply chains are managed better, inventory control gets tighter, core merchandising is improved and so Arcadia can track sales and fashion trends better and learn more about what sizes are needed in the stores, on an individual basis, rather than by country. According to Green, Oracle will enable Arcadia to "romance the customer" and intensify efforts to put up flagships and grow the online business.

I am with Jon at the Oracle Industry Connect this week. Of course I have enjoyed connecting with those I know, but I must admit it is also enjoyable meeting people from other industries like life sciences, healthcare, financial services, insurance and education. Sometimes I forget that there are industries other than hospitality. I have enjoyed meeting these people from other industries, but it is amazing how they all want to really know what the hotel industry is all about. When your business is about where people eat, drink and sleep I guess it does sound a bit more intriguing than the banking industry. It has been an enjoyable two days and no matter how often we interact with others in the industry, nothing beats face to face. There was a great crowd from the hospitality space with a lot of the higher ups from the industry attending. It was nice seeing so many making time to come to this event. I thank Oracle for inviting me and after the events Hospitality Upgrade put on last week I am very thankful I just get to attend, not having to speak nonstop. Thank you, Jon, for making this week's Siegel Sez easier as I sit in my hotel room in Washington, D.C., at 5:30 in the morning trying to be creative after a night of eating and drinking at the Smithsonian Castle.
