Staples Australia and New Zealand Selects Revionics Competitive Insights for Comprehensive Online Price Intelligence

AUSTIN, Texas, May 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- With turnover of more than $1 billion AUD annually, Staples Australia and New Zealand is an office supply market giant with a unique addition to its brick-and-mortar presence:  Staples.com.au, their online direct-delivery business for consumers and small businesses under 20 employees. To ensure competitive, customer-centric pricing in this business sector, Staples Australia and New Zealand selected Revionics Competitive Data & Insights. 

Staples Australia and New Zealand excels in rapid, reliable delivery to its customers with more than 80,000 deliveries daily.  Staples Australia and New Zealand's Head of Pricing Charnine Short, who recently returned to Staples in Australia after serving as Staples' European Pricing Manager for B2B, wanted to rapidly re-evaluate the company's competitive insights and refresh the pricing strategy for Staples Australia and New Zealand's B2C business. At Staples Australia and New Zealand, Short and her team have implemented Revionics to ensure that customers receive the best prices on the items they care most about. "With Revionics' real-time online competitive price monitoring and its automated rules-based price capabilities, we can offer small businesses throughout Australia the assurance that they are receiving the best price available, 24/7," said Short. "We want to leverage Revionics' capabilities to drive market growth in our B2C channel, create market-relevant pricing for our B2B non-contract business and design more targeted promotional pricing."

Prior to implementing Revionics, Staples Australia and New Zealand had been using an alternate competitive monitoring tool.  Based on early results, Revionics has yielded a 20% higher match rate than the legacy system with more accurate competitive matching as well. In addition, Staples Australia and New Zealand values the Revionics' team's responsiveness and ability to execute on their rapid implementation timeline.

"Innovative Australian retailers like Staples are leading the way in providing customer-focused, responsive pricing that reflects shopper priorities while meeting key business and financial goals," said Marc H. Hafner, Revionics' chairman and CEO.  "We are excited to work with Staples Australia and New Zealand to further accelerate their market leadership and expand their competitive advantage as we continue to expand our footprint in Australia and New Zealand and throughout Asia Pacific."
