There is meaningful work to do across ERP, ecommerce infrastructure, data, governance, and omnichannel retail systems.

* Evaluate the current technology stack against future scale requirements
* Define and deliver the roadmap for omnichannel and retail expansion
* Introduce governance, SLAs, and operational controls
* Build data and reporting foundations across the business
