From strategy through implementation, Semaphore leads retailers to the forefront of the retail renaissance, adapting the business to meet consumers where they are today, and greeting the consumers where they will be tomorrow.
it strategy
A major challenge facing retailers is knowing how to leverage their current ecosystem to adapt and predict consumer demands in an increasingly phygital world. As if that wasn’t hard enough, enterprises also face internal challenges when building cross-departmental initiatives.
Semaphore consultants understand these challenges and have the tools needed to help retailers identify, develop, and validate IT strategies that are desirable, feasible, and viable. We leverage close collaboration, POC, framework, and roadmap development to maximize the outcomes of our client’s long-term and short-term initiatives.
system analysis & design
The most effective systems solve for immediate needs and long term impact. They stem from a deep understanding of organizational and end user goals, needs, and objectives.
Semaphore helps organizations define their “as is” and “to be” through detailed gap analyses that involve all business units and end-users. We strategically elicit and communicate system requirements and design in each unit’s language and terminology, ensuring that business partners and IT departments are aligned on sustainable, value-generating future state solutions that scale.

This results in extensive RFPs, detailed vendor evaluations, and clear-cut personalized recommendations that enable clients to meet their current and future organizational needs.
