JDA Software Group Inc announced that Charlotte Russe Holding Inc implemented several JDA Portfolio applications in just five months for its contemporary fashion Rampage chain. The retailer also converted its junior fashion Charlotte Russe chain in seven months to JDA's Portfolio Merchandise Management (PMM), Performance Analysis by IDEAS and Advanced Planning Solutions by Arthur applications.
With plans to expand to more than 700 stores, Charlotte Russe needed a strategic solution that could handle large transaction volumes and improve inventory visibility and tracking.
"Speed to value drove their decision to take such a rapid deployment approach. The entire JDA team demonstrated terrific resolve in supporting the project go-live in a very compressed timeframe. It's one of the best teams I've worked with," stated Ed Wong, senior vice president of supply chain and systems at Charlotte Russe, a 25-year retail veteran with roots in planning and allocation.
"They needed a vendor that was committed and responsive to resolving issues and JDA demonstrated these values time and time again," added Wong.
Commenting on how JDA's services groups provided an integrated approach to the project, Wong added, "For example, the support team was involved throughout the implementation, which gave us confidence that their success would continue from day one of their go-live."
"JDA's support, including enhancements to current products and the introduction of its next-generation PortfolioEnabled products, gives us confidence that they will continue to receive an excellent ROI."
