Omnichannel is a term described as the sales and supply chain processes that enable a customer to secure goods and services in ways that best suits their needs whether that be select a product on line with store pickup (retail used as a warehouse) or shop in a store and have purchases shipped to a different location with a myriad of other combinations possible. Most approaches by retailers to original equipment manufacturers (OEM) still revolve around Make-to-Stock (MTS) production and planning models in a sort of “inventory somewhere” will provide for the greatest flexibility & likelihood of customer attraction and satisfaction.
