Latest Case StudiesCase Study: Digital Transformation in Retail
When Staples Canada decided to modernize its merchandising technology, it needed more than new software. It needed a partner who could run a rigorous gap analysis, map every process end to end, translate the findings into clear requirements, and see the system implementation through to adoption. That is exactly the digital transformation work IMA Consulting delivered.
Case Study: Operational Excellence in Manufacturing
Bayview Flowers, a Canadian greenhouse grower supplying major retailers, was losing time and accuracy in the handoffs between its sales, procurement, and production teams. IMA Consulting brought a Lean, data driven approach, using value stream mapping, Kaizen, and root cause analysis to turn a fragmented order fulfillment process into a connected, visible one.
Case Study: Retail Reporting & Process Improvement
A major retail apparel company could not trust its own inventory numbers. Stock was mismanaged at the store level, processes were inconsistent, and there was no reliable way to see which stores were performing. IMA Consulting fixed that with reporting and process discipline: a performance scorecard, clear standard operating procedures, and the accountability to make them stick, lifting inventory accuracy from 81 percent to above 95 percent.
Case Study: Retail Technology System Implementation
adidas Canada wanted to launch a true omnichannel experience, buy online and return in store, across roughly 250 adidas and Reebok stores. The blocker was not ambition, it was the systems. Inventory data was not flowing correctly from the distribution center into store systems, so no omnichannel platform could be trusted. IMA Consulting traced the technical root cause, fixed the system data flow, and helped clear the way for the omnichannel software rollout.
Case Study: FlashForward Brand Makeover
FlashForward is a technology solutions broker that helps businesses source the right internet, data, voice, cloud, and cybersecurity solutions at no cost to the customer. The offering was strong, but the brand did not show it. With an outdated website and no social media presence, FlashForward was invisible to the buyers it served best. IMA Consulting led a full brand makeover, from ideal client and messaging to a complete visual identity, a lead generating website, a memorable brand character, and a LinkedIn social selling presence.
Case Study: Ethnic Food Company
An emerging ethnic food company had won space on some of the toughest shelves in North America, with products in 42 Walmart stores and 4 Costco locations. The founder wanted to expand her customer base, but she was flying blind: there was no clear reporting or visibility into how the brand was actually selling, and the business was running on margins of roughly 2.5 percent. IMA Consulting gave her that visibility, built a reporting tool to measure retail performance, cut spending that was not earning a return, and helped reshape the leadership team so the business could scale.
