Challenge

Axstores faced a major modernisation and digitalisation journey. They needed a skilled development partner to support and manage projects and develop custom solutions to manage the challenges of the journey in a controlled way. In order not to slow down the pace of change and projects, they needed to quickly access the skills and resources to succeed.

Solution

Omegapoint was able to offer the right skills and resources to support Axstores during their transformation journey in an increasingly agile and changing retail world. They supported Axstores with solution architecture, contributed with technical project management, integration design and development, and verification and testing of the final solution.

Omegapoint has been actively working to increase security and risk awareness in Axstore's solutions. Omegapoint and Axstores jointly developed a plan to change the IT landscape. This involved moving away from modifying standard systems to using smaller and tailored services to complement competent standard systems.

Result

Axstores can now save time and resources by simplifying upgrades significantly. The IT architecture is now more agile, which also facilitates other changes. Omegapoint also acts as a further development and management partner for the new microservices. Today they have an established rolled out e-commerce for both Åhléns and Kicks.
