From Assisted Service to Customer Self Service: Mobile Technology as an Enabler to Higher
Productivity and Improved Customer Experience at Sonae
Today’s retailing environment requires companies to achieve high levels of store productivity while delivering
great consumer experience. The reality today is that many retailers are dependent on the functionality, tools
and information which are mainly available in systems accessible in the store back office area. Given the
existing complexities and legacy systems, how do you provide your staff with this anywhere, anytime access
without changing current systems? Sonae found the answer by developing its Mobile Portal, a platform for
deploying business applications to mobile devices in the enterprise. The new challenges reside in delivering a
smooth self service customer experience using the information usually only available to store associates.
João Amaral, Director, Sonae, Portugal

A confluence of trends is transforming the shopper landscape at head-spinning pace: advanced mobile
devices and technologies; social, demographic and political changes; and an increasingly mobile
consumer. With new technologies connecting and empowering consumers around the world as never before,
what can retailers and manufacturers do – separately and together – to build long-lasting relationships with the
consumer? This session will build on insights from Deloitte’s report “Consumer 2020 – reading the signs,” which
takes a broad spectrum look at these trends and their impact on consumers.
Lawrence Hutter, Global Leader – Consumer Business, Deloitte, United Kingdom
Mar Areosa, Director – Corporate Strategy, Deloitte Spain
Breakfast Session: Global Chief Marketing Officer Study: 1700+ Face-to-Face Interviews
Given this rapidly changing digital landscape and business environment – it’s time to bring science to the
art of marketing. Science – is about observation, fact based systematic approaches, analytical, outcomes
based, leveraging advanced tools and methodologies, testing. Marketing – is about storytelling, wish fulfillment
capturing the imagination and loyalty of the customer through reaching them in a relevant, compelling and
personal way – differentiating your brand. In today’s market environment, you need both to analyze, predict,
and develop systematic approaches to capture and capitalize on opportunity. The 2011 IBM Global Chief
Marketing Officer Study explores emerging trends impacting CMOs and reveals how they are responding to the
evolving scope and needs of marketing.
Patrick Medley, Consumer Products Industry Leader, IBM, Australia

10. IT Conference 2011 – The Consumerism of IT
Information Technology Morning Breakout Sessions
IT Breakout Session - Integrated IT Delivers Superior Brick and Mortar Store Customer Experience
Brick and mortar retail companies face increasing competitive challenges from online retailers and must
strengthen the value they bring to customers in product delivery, convenience and reliability. Integrated IT
plays a critical role in ensuring that corporate offices orchestrate the timely delivery of products to stores. Retail
corporations that adopt integrated Store to Corporate systems help their business lines make the right decisions
by tracking customer product preferences and managing product promotions so that intelligent marketing
can increase customer loyalty. Learn how Delhaize benefits from integrated Store to Corporate systems with
access to 100% on time and accurate data information, transmissions and tracking.
freiko Baeyens, Manager IT Operations, Delhaize Group, Belgium
Paul french, Vice President, Product and Solutions Marketing, Axway, USA
IT Breakout Session - Providing Digital Information Consumers Can Trust
Consumers are already using digital product information when they shop for and consume products. Studies
show that over 75% of product information available to consumers on their mobile phones is inaccurate.
Brands are at risk: inaccurate information erodes consumer trust. But ... brands and retailers are starting to share
authentic product information with internet application providers in a standardised way. Pilots are showing
positive results: increased efficiency, closer relationships with consumers, increased sales and a proactive
approach to regulation on consumer information.
richard Copperthwaite, IT Director, Tesco.com, United Kingdom
Manufacturer co-speaker to be announced. Session facilitated by GS1.
IT Breakout Session - Data Integrity – the Key to Connecting Business for the Consumer
Data integrity issues now reach far beyond the “four walls” of a business and their trading partners.
Consumers expect high quality product information not only on the pack, but also in store, on retailer websites
and through mobile phone apps. Standards are key to managing and sharing good quality product data. A
strategic approach to data integrity leads to clear “process” benefits such as increased efficiency... but also
impacts the core of brand value: consumer trust. An industry solution providing a “trusted source” of product
data is likely to provide benefits of scale to all users.
Milan Turk, Managing Director, Global Customer Business Development, Procter & Gamble, USA
Retailer co-speaker to be announced. Session facilitated by GS1.
Operational Excellence 2011
Shared Plenary Afternoon Session
Keynote Address – A Catalyst for Change
Operational excellence is key to growth. It’s all about breaking down the silos between Supply Chain, IT and
Marketing and working together to better serve the consumer. And it’s about retailers and manufacturers
combining their minds to find ways to better meet the needs and expectations of the consumers of our
products and shoppers in our stores.
David Cheesewright, President & CEO, Walmart Canada
