Leadership brands run SAP Commerce Cloud omnichannel consumer experience

The only constant in the beer, wines and spirits industry is change. Deregulation of the three-tier environment at both the federal and state levels combined with an industry CAGR of 5%, means the stakes are high for those that can take advantage of new opportunities that are re-shaping the industry by the day. The increasing power of the digitally connected consumer is forcing proliferation of product choice across categories and segments while mandating instant home delivery models that suppliers, distributors and retailers alike are ill-suited to support. Enter the digital disruptors.

Regardless if your enterprise is the aggressor or defender of market share, Savantis understands the Alcoholic Beverage Industry business drivers, imperatives and digital disruptors that will forge tomorrow’s marketplace leaders. If its control state or open market, on- or off-premise, route-to-market, path-to-purchase, digital commerce, supply chain, last-mile delivery or market enablement, we can help re-invent your alcohol business for the new economy.

To support your transformation to the Intelligent Enterprise, Savantis provides the integrated suite of applications, intelligent technologies, and the digital platform that enterprises need to adapt and succeed. We have the vision, the solutions, and the services to meet the current and future challenges alcohol companies face in defining their transformation strategy to meet the unprecedented changes in the global marketplace.

THE EIGHT PRIORITIES FOR SUCCESS

Savantis believes suppliers, distributors and retailers alike must transform their capabilities to compete in the new digital economy by overcoming key industry challenges.  For the best run businesses that can transform with speed and agility — to the victor go the spoils.

Digitally empowered consumers are at the heart the new world economy — and servicing their anytime, anywhere expectations will mandate a customer experience-first mentality.

Federal and state deregulation of prohibition-era Tied-House and interstate commerce laws will open the marketplace to new opportunities to seize market share.

Industry convergence and the emergence of the fourth-tier will drive continued MA&D and require growing coopetition among unlikely partners to compete in the new economy. Disruption across traditional path-to-purchase and route-to-market value chains will require agile business network models to integrate seamlessly with digital platforms.

Tighter relationships with retailers increase value for all parties—suppliers, distributors and retailers—from increased points of distribution, to higher visibility shelf space, to highly impactful in-store and POS displays, and more frequent one-time buys, valued channel relationships support unique brand experiences on- and off-premise.

Proliferation of new categories, products, pricing and digital content can overwhelm supplier and distributor supply chains, and sales and marketing capabilities to sustain volumes for global tier one brands, while nurturing new brand winners of tomorrow.

Digital marketing, commerce and self-service platforms must capture priceless buyer interactions and sentiments that drive new world AI-based intelligent marketing and customer engagement — simultaneously providing customers real-time product availability, order and shipment status and invoice presentment.

Digital boots on the ground. Distributors act in the role of promoter for the brands they serve, while suppliers seek to reach brand loyal consumers through digital and social channels. But together with digital commerce, AI-based intelligent marketing will change the way field sales interacts with customers of tomorrow — expanding the capabilities of field resources to support more brands while better servicing customers’ needs.

Curating insightful X + O Data and presenting new predictive and augmented analytics produces new world insight-to-action that will profoundly change the way enterprises operate to support global brands and customers.

Hi,

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, we want to share with you that the health and safety of Savantis Solutions clients, employees, and the communities we serve is our top priority. It is unfortunate that the entire world has been hostage by this crisis, but we’re all in this together and we want to do everything in our capacity to help stop this.

In this regard, the State of Pennsylvania has announced mitigation efforts for COVID-19, especially for Montgomery County PA which has seen the highest number of cases in the state so far.

Here’s an excerpt from the official announcement by Gov. Tom Wolf.

“In Montgomery County, we are aggressively moving to a mitigation phase, and statewide we are providing guidance to help slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus,”

Following the guidance, the staff at our US offices will be working remotely until further notice. We assure you that it will be business as usual with no disruption. We will continue to monitor this rapidly changing situation and notify you of any further changes.

Thank you for understanding. Stay safe, everyone!

Regards,
