Fous, Ondřej ; Pour, Jan (advisor) ; Příklenk, Lukáš (referee)
Problem that emerges quite often when managing IT in retail industry is not understanding individual details and bindings between elements within this activity. Therefore, this diploma thesis is, with the help of MBI methodology, trying to draft frameworks for at least two scenarios which may emerge with high probability when managing IT in retail: choice and implementation of retail information system and corresponding hardware and subsequent service maintenance of chosen solution. These scenarios contain individual parts of addressed issues in form of tasks and their key activities; each single one of them defining processes, possible problems and finally bonds with internal and external elements, mainly because such bonds very often in a major way affect solution of said issues. Main goal of this thesis is to show these segments of reality from retail-and-its-surroundings-as-a-whole point of view, providing users of the methodology with description of the best ways to cope with the industry-specific problems in a practical and graspable way.

Methodology of Implementation of Complex Retail Solutions in Life Style Retail
Příklenk, Lukáš ; Novotný, Ota (advisor) ; Pour, Jan (referee)
The retail companies have a very conservative approach concerning IT expenses and innovations. Maybe for this reason, it is now the best time for changing an IT infrastructure and a complex retail solution. Most of the companies need to optimize their processes due to the financial crisis to achieve a competitive advantage. There are many differences among the retail companies - these differences may cause that an implementation of a software solution is tricky. It is important to be aware of such aspects when implementing the software solution. The main aim of this work is to design, extend and optimize a methodology of implementation of a complex retail solution. The new methodology is quite general - it might be used for an implementation of any POS solution. The goal of new methodology is to improve top line and margin. Finally, it shall bring a bigger satisfaction to the customer. I divided this work into several main chapters. First chapter is dedicated to the specifics of retail companies - how they work, which processes they use, how much they invest into the IT. The second part contains an analysis of POS solutions available on the Czech market and a brief description of the particular software solutions with their market share. The third part is dedicated to the RIM methodology designed by Microsoft Corporation. The fourth - and the main part of my work - contains an extension of the RIM methodology. In the final part I sum up the main achievements of this work and evaluate the new extended methodology. In the appendix, I compared some examples with the real figures to the new methodology.

Analýza trhu IS/ICT v sektoru fashion retail
Příklenk, Lukáš ; Pour, Jan (advisor) ; Rydziová, Jana (referee)
Tato bakalářská práce je průzkumem life style retailového trhu. Náhodně jsem vybral 10 obchodních řetězců provozujících jeden či více obchodů. Firma mohla být zařazena do průzkumu, pokud splňovala následující kritéria. Obchodní firma či řetězec provozuje jednu či více maloobchodních prodejen. Prodávaný sortiment spadá do oblasti life style retail trhu. Firma měla zájem o zařazení do průzkumu, a tím i o získání výsledků průzkumu. Porovnané technologie jsem vybral z analýzy společnosti Gartner Hype Cycle for Retail 2006. Technologii jsem zařadil do průzkumu, pokud byla hodnocena dle Gartneru jako ?transformational? nebo ?high.? Do dotazníku jsem také zařadil technologie, o kterých je vydávána řada odborných článků, jsou přínosné a obchodníci se o ně zajímají. Na konci práce čtenář najde výsledky průzkumu: kolik obchodníků využívá danou technologii a pokud ji obchodníci nevyužívají, jakým způsobem řeší danou problematiku. Dále pak jak velké investice byly spojeny se zavedením technologie a jak dlouhou dobu měla návratnost. Jaké hlavní přínosy jim technologie poskytla nebo jaké přínosy od ní očekávají. Práce je také určena potenciálním dodavatelům, kteří uvažují o vstupu na life style retail trh. Dodavatelé se mohou dozvědět, jaké technologie nejsou obchodníky využívány a kde je tudíž potenciál k získání nových zákazníků. Potenciální dodavatelé se také mohou seznámit s běžným chováním v life style retailu a najdou návod na to, jak by se měli pohybovat v tomto prostředí.
