Dear community members,

Setting up the SAP Retail Omnichannel Commerce landscape with all its components, integration and scenarios is no color by numbers and can take years to transform. And it can’t be a quick exercise, as it has to consider flexibility, step-by-step approaches, and most of all: business specifics.

But how about setting up a prototype, a pilot, or a solid baseline in an accelerated fashion? Meaning: in a few days!

Please welcome the “Omnichannel Model Company”:

The Omnichannel Model Company is a sample for a technically solid implementation of Retail Omnichannel Commerce core processes. Built by the brightest SAP Retail experts in SAP Retail's service organization the Model Company provides a solid baseline configuration of major parts of our SAP Retail Omnichannel Reference architecture:

The Omnichannel Model Company offers proven component and scenario integration that reduces trial & error when assembling the components and scenarios:

In addition the Omnichannel Model Company offers documentation and WYSIWYG transparency to avoid misunderstandings and unproductive discussions.

The Omnichannel Model Company is built for SAP Retail Customers (not partners!) and comes as a SAP Hana DB file copy, containing the key parts of the Retail Omnichannel reference architecture, a ISO file copy of SAP Hybris Commerce, and a technical installation guide:
