Case Study: Fortune 300 paint & coatings leader achieves 50% faster time-to-market and 100% on-time store rollouts with Pomeroy

Fortune 300 company - Customer Case Study

The Fortune 300 company, a global leader in paint and coatings with over 4,000 retail outlets, acquired 304 stores operating under five different brands and disparate IT infrastructures. Faced with a compressed integration schedule (8 weeks in the U.S., 4 weeks in Canada) and the need to convert thousands of devices and over 18,000 SKUs across 13 U.S. states and 6 Canadian provinces, the company engaged Pomeroy for comprehensive IT infrastructure services including hardware procurement, configuration, logistics, project management and technical staffing.

Pomeroy executed a tightly coordinated rollout—recruiting and managing 111 technicians, managing multi-source procurement of 18,000+ SKUs through its Logistics Center, configuring 600+ servers and 300 printers in its Configuration Center, and delivering store-specific “Branch in a Box” kits—while deinstalling ~2,000 legacy items. The engagement delivered every store on schedule and on budget, achieving a 50% reduction in time-to-market, 100% on-time performance, 100% accuracy in SKU delivery, and 100% customer satisfaction, accelerating revenue, ROI and shareholder value.
