APELDOORN, The Netherlands and BAGSHOT, England, September 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

Introduction RetailAdapt 'Omni Channel Commerce' at OpenText Enterprise World

RetailAdapt, the Customer Journey experts, offer a series of applications built on the Cordys platform, recently acquired by OpenText.

The 'ReadyforRetail®' platform is based on OpenText Cordys and enables retailers to link and adapt consumer-oriented processes and experiences from different applications/systems seamlessly.

With the finalisation of the Cordys acquisition by OpenText, RetailAdapt will introduce its latest module for the 'ReadyforRetail®' platform during the OpenText Enterprise World event in November.

Recently OpenText acquired Cordys which it is continued as OpenText Cordys.

"The Cordys acquisition by OpenText means that OpenText can directly benefit from the ReadForRetail® platform as this is completely vertical based allowing far greater offerings in the Retail market. Also their wide international presence is a great opportunity for both our companies", says Michel de Beer, managing director of Retail Adapt. "Thanks to the acquisition of Cordys and the availability of our 'ReadyforRetail®' platform OpenText hasdirect access to the retail market - an area where theyhad only limited presence. With our platform and/or application templates OpenText and its partners can immediately offer additional solutions within this market using our application templates, such as Omni Channel Commerce, or buildingnew modules of their own."

Both large-tier as well as smaller retailers can directly access the applications and/or modules of RetailAdapt's 'ReadyforRetail' platform and thus immediately benefit.

All the preparatory work is already done within the 'ReadyforRetail' framework and available through a unified platform for implementation which ensures that it is quickly implemented.

De Beer: "The RetailAdapt 'ReadyforRetail' platform offers every retailer the solution to merge complex customer related processes in a quick and unambiguous manner and to organize for optimal 'shopping experience' across all channels. One can be more and more responsive to the expectations and experiences of consumers and ensure that new purchases, or cross or up selling is made possible."

The beauty of our framework is the interchangeable operations between on-premise and/or in the cloud.

During Enterprise World 2013 - OpenText's Enterprise Information Management Conference, Orlando (USA), November 17 - 21 - RetailAdapt will introduce the new Omni Channel Commerce module. Omni Channel Commerce provides an integrated, effective way to influence customers' buying process throughout the business regardless what channel they are in or what device they use.
