Rapid Retail is a pre-configured set of core retail processes based on best practices, and it combines the power of SAP for Retail with CIBER's proven rapid implementation expertise. Rapid Retail enables retailers to reduce the time, cost, and risk of an implementation project, from project start to the realization of business benefits.
CIBER developed its newest retail product - Ready-to-Run - in response to numerous client requests for assistance with all aspects of a complex ERP implementation project. As a result, Ready-to-Run includes CIBER's Rapid Retail solution, along with other important components: software, hardware, implementation services, hosting, education and training, and post-production support.
"CIBER is a valued SAP partner and I appreciate their continued thought leadership in the retail marketplace," said Rob Kreft, national vice president, SAP Retail Group, SAP America, Inc.

From the client's perspective, this solution operates as a Software as a Service solution; however, each client will have their own dedicated and secure system."
