Sorry I couldn’t be there I heard about the meeting. I am aware of the suggestion you are deciding whether or not to update our systems. After seeing the consultant’s presentation, I think it would be in best interest for the company to upgrade to windows as they suggested.

Being able to have our employees trained in Windows would give them an advantage needed for the new retail systems. By having Windows, we will be able to do business online which is where most of our customer’s seem to want to do business. We need to be able to adapt and satisfy the needs of our customer’s satisfaction. Almost every company that has a retail store, has an online ordering system. With that being said switching from DOS to Windows would cost us approximately 3,064,600 euros that would be a 5 year. We would be able to benefit by the new system which will be an advantage to our company.

As of now our employees have to manually count the inventory to decide if new shipment needs to be ordered. Having this new system, we would be able to do this automatically, so that will reduce the time wasted and maybe even human error.

This would be a great suggestion to change. I really think our customer’s would continue to shop at Zara’s and we would have repeat customers. We must make these changes soon, since we are at loss of customers and of sales.
