Challenges
- Digitalization of the Process:

- Complexity of merging IT systems, involving a multitude of various tools, including 2 ERPs and 4 PIMs, and numerous sales channels with the challenge of rationalization.
- Collection of data and their formats:
- Strong need for rich data due to specialized categories and the constant renewal of ranges (e.g., DIY, laptops...). Facilitated integration to complete the data.
