    Perry Ellis International (PEI) is one of the largest branded lifestyle
    apparel companies in the world with a diverse brand portfolio distributed through multiple channels. PEI has more than 70 stores in the United States and United Kingdom.<\/p>\n

    Project scope and challenge<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    It was imperative that the retailer integrate its online and physical store brand environments to provide customers with a more seamless, premium shopping experience. PEI sought to transition from Oracle Retail v12 to v14, enabling the retailer to better leverage its goal of commerce anywhere; pricing and allocation capabilities; increased inventory visibility, accuracy and access; as well as modernize its point-of-service (POS) technology.<\/p>\n

    Security was also a prime concern; PEI aimed to strengthen the security of its POS to better protect customers and itself, gain single sign-on integration, and ensure all payment software could be applied in other countries as stores were added. EMV-enabled payment integration, P2PE and tokenization were key parts of this.<\/p>\n

    To achieve this, PEI sought a technology partner to lead the upgrade of its Oracle Retail and POS software suites across all U.S. and U.K. store locations. The scope also included:<\/p>\n

    \u2022 Oracle Store Suite (Point-of-Service, Back Office, Central Office)
    \u2022 RMS
    \u2022 RPM
    \u2022 Allocation
    \u2022 SIM
    \u2022 RIB
    \u2022 Custom and legacy integrations
    \u2022 Data conversion and migration<\/p>\n<\/div>

    This wasn\u2019t the first partnership for Perry Ellis International and BTM Global; the retailer asked BTM to implement Oracle Retail v14. In fact, many of the BTM employees from the initial project were also part of the ORCE work, making for a faster and more efficient kick-off. PEI chose BTM based on its proven success with past projects and superior ability to collaborate with PEI\u2019s fast-paced culture. In addition to implementation and integration, BTM Global supported end-to-end testing and training.<\/p>\n

    Leadership and a comprehensive, strategic approach were key to making this project a success. Not only was the timeline extremely tight, but there were several unique factors that added complexity:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • This was one of the industry\u2019s first ORCE cloud implementations with data converted and migrated from a legacy CRM system in such a short period of time<\/li>\n
    • One of the industry\u2019s first integrations of ORCE to ORPOS (PEI\u2019s current Oracle point-of-service solution) instead
      \nof Xstore<\/li>\n
    • While the cloud environment was in production, BTM and PEI leveraged creative solutions that allowed the teams
      \nto continue iterating and testing at the speed required to meet the deadline<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      \u201cThis project had a tight timeline, but we knew BTM could manage the complexity and speed because of our history of successful work together,\u201d said Sandeep Baghel, vice president of retail systems, Perry Ellis International. \u201cBecause this project was one of the first of its kind in the industry, the BTM team\u2019s ability to learn and adapt quickly was invaluable.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>
