Consumer goods manufacturers are becoming Future Ready. Now.
It takes technology and ingenuity to get ready for what’s next.
DOWNLOADRethink consumer goods solutions
The consumer goods industry is used to market challenges and uncertainty, but the scale, severity and suddenness of recent disruptions is unprecedented. Consumers are adapting to new personal circumstances by spending their time and money differently, wondering what the future holds. Increasingly connected, consumers require any time and anywhere products and consumer goods.
40% (approximately) of leading brands have declining sales because of their failure to adapt to consumer needs.
Being able to pivot to dramatic market changes is not easy but advancements in technology have enabled successful consumer goods companies to embrace transformation and adopt technological and cultural change. Our innovation, industry depth and execution with Microsoft technologies will help our clients to relish rather than fear the next challenge. Product manufacturers are depending on their technology partners to bring an end-to-end value proposition.
“Avanade has the know-how, the Microsoft expertise, and the innovative spirit we needed to successfully undertake a project of this magnitude [migration to Office 365] and to deliver a solution with higher benefits and more security than we previously had.”
