Retail IT solutions
Retail loses revenue when stock, product cards, orders and margin diverge across POS, 1C, WMS, marketplaces and PIM. We build a single product-and-order loop: channels launch faster, availability is more accurate, and sales analytics no longer conflicts with operations.
KT.Team
Overview
What we change in retail
We assemble a product → channel → order → margin flow so CPO, CIO and CDTO see one process state.
Processes
- Stock and prices
- PIM/MDM
- Orders and returns
- Promo and margin
- Marketplaces
Platform
- Loose coupling via API, ESB/Kafka and events
- PIM/MDM as the source of product data and publishing rules
- DORA/SRE: monitoring exchanges, queues and errors
- AI agents for error triage, content support and analytics
Impact
- Unified product availability across channels
- Faster launch of storefronts, marketplaces and promos
- Fewer manual reconciliations between commerce and IT
- Margin and GMROI decisions on fresh data
Industries
One engineering base, different industry KPIs
Domain pages need a KPI in the industry's language: construction — deadlines and margin, retail — availability and revenue, logistics — SLA, manufacturing — time-to-market, distribution — order speed.
Construction
Plan-vs-actual, contractors, procurement, estimates, CDE/BIM and AI summaries for the project manager.
Retail
PIM, omnichannel, reservations, marketplaces and honest channel analytics.
Logistics/manufacturing/distribution
WMS/TMS/MES/ERP/PIM/EDI connect through a shared data and integration layer.
Retail
How we approach retail
We don't start with a big year-long blueprint. We take one process, quickly remove losses, measure the impact and move to the next.
Process by process
First we pick a process with a direct impact on money: stock, cards, promo, orders, returns or supplies. We deliver a working optimization, not an architecture deck.
Simple doesn't mean easy
Drawing a complex diagram is easy. Harder is removing extra steps, manual reconciliations and fragile links so the process becomes clear to the business and support.
Weak connectivity
We connect POS, 1C, WMS, PIM, CRM and marketplaces via API, events and an integration layer. A system can be replaced or a channel added without rewriting the whole landscape.
Change platform
We move rules, statuses, approval routes and reference data into a managed layer so IT, product teams and power users can change processes without a cascade of rework.
Data and reliability
A unified product loop, exchange monitoring and DORA/SRE practices enable frequent releases without losing stability during sales and seasonal peaks.
Where retail loses money
- Out-of-stock and oversell: stock figures in POS, 1C, WMS and marketplaces drift apart, so the chain loses sales and gets excess returns at the same time.
- A new sales channel launches slower than demand shifts: integrations, prices, promo and assortment depend on manual exports.
- Product cards, photos, specs and labeling codes diverge across the website, marketplaces, PIM and retail stores.
- Margin, GMROI, LFL and promo effectiveness are calculated after the fact — CPO and commercial teams decide on stale data.
- Peak sales expose weak spots: no observability of integrations, queues, exchange errors or the revenue impact of incidents.

What those already with us say
There is no need to ask any questions at all. Everything is clear, structured, precise, and done with the right IT-grade competence! We made no mistake in our choice: transparency, simplicity in the best sense, trust, expertise — all at a level where we already feel like one shared team.
The best — both the developers and the management, and the owners are in a league of their own! What was done at Snow Queen would have taken other companies 10 times longer. And thank you for assessing development sensibly and not stretching out the timelines.
To launch the project on time the team practically lived in our office. They delivered on schedule. Keep it up — great work!
