Simplot Australia integrates IT systems with retailers Coles and Woolworth

Nowak-Rowe: "We started reworking our information systems strategy last year and began implementing technology in line with our corporate strategy."

"The first thing was to look at the organisation's structure of information systems, and we changed that this year to give a much clearer focus on alignment with the customer base."

This has mainly been taking place on the retail side of the business, where Simplot Australia is aligning itself with Coles and Woolworths.

Simplot Australia has spent $400,000 ensuring its systems integrate with the two retailers to enable an all-electronic distribution process.
