NeüRMS Founder, Lanre Olaniyan, says the retail management solution will change the way African entrepreneurs do business.

As a retail business owner, you probably already know how important it is to ensure your customers get what they need safely and promptly and feel valued doing so. You know better than most that the reward of running a top-notch operation is an increased potential for growth – in reach, conversion, referral, and loyalty. With NeüRMS, running your retail and distribution business operations has become much more manageable.

Today, many retail, distribution, and hospitality businesses get by on basic operations and are stuck on Excel spreadsheets or other old computer-based tools, while some attempt to employ foreign-sourced management solutions. However, they eventually discover these methods are too time-consuming, prone to errors, not designed for Nigeria, or point-blank too expensive or overly complex for SMEs to afford.

Well, business owners now have a breath of fresh air with the introduction of NeüRMS to the market. NeüRMS is a secure, subscription-based, and easy-to-use integrated retail management solution that reduces the mundane workload of retail management, automates and simplifies operations, and allows you to focus on what matters.

The indigenous solution is an affordable end-to-end application with features that provide 360-degree monitoring capability and control over Point of Sale, Inventory, and Supply Chain Management with Reports and Analytics, all in one place, with no aspect of the business operation left out.

Lanre Olaniyan is the CEO of SoftStructures Limited, an IT firm driving innovation across Africa and whose team developed NeüRMS. He believes every business needs a structured system for its management because this provides a clear view of all your business operations and guides you to make appropriate decisions that will result in growth and profitability.

During its official launch on Thursday, November 3rd, 2022, in Lagos, he noted that NeüRMS was carefully designed with the peculiarities of Africa’s diverse economies and societies in mind. Particularly the challenges faced by retail, supply chain, and hospitality businesses using foreign-designed software in Nigeria.

NeüRMS’ team engaged guests at the Launch.

“Most software available to retail businesses in Nigeria are not suited for Nigeria. Some of the most important features are either unavailable for the region or unaffordable. Some solutions are also not smart, and users must input many entries manually. Sometimes, the software packages do not understand your stock. They have limited live carts and cannot attend to multiple customers. These and many more are all existing problems NeüRMS has solved,” he stated.

The Point-of-Sale feature enables businesses like restaurants, saloons, micro/medium-retail shops, social media stores, etc., to perform functions such as product scanning during sales, receipt issuance, payment processing, and so much more, all on a single-page application. This feature enables any SME to upgrade from manual to digital uploads in minutes, catapulting it into the world of e-commerce, thus improving its customer reach and sales. It’s available on all digital platforms and terminals, both mobile and desktop.

For SMEs dealing in FCMGs, the software’s innovative Supply Chain Management feature allows them to track inventory levels, request vendor supply, monitor and negotiate price changes, schedule deliveries, and so much more in real-time, all on a user-friendly digital platform.

As a business growth enabler, the NeüRMS Report and Analytics feature provides valuable insights on sales information, purchase order status, credit terms, stock availability, and invoice status for implementing appropriate business decisions and strategies. Thus, giving business owners an exact picture of what is profitable and what is not. Think of it as the software that tells you what products to stock more or when some of your goods are near expiry, and you might need to make clearance sales. Yes, it is that detailed.

One of NeüRMS biggest promises is affordability. Olaniyan asks, “Why does a business that earns in naira have to pay so much in US dollars to access its daily tools despite their low scalability and one-cap-fits-all design?” Asides from allowing its users to pay in local currency, thus giving control over cost, NeüRMS also has multiple levels of access control and enables business owners to coordinate the operations of other business units like accounts, warehouses, retail managers, cashiers, etc.

NeüRMS works in line with global best practices on cyber security and personal/business data protection. It is designed to safeguard users and always ensure data privacy with multiple layers of security. The solution also comes with a free webpage that guarantees increased online visibility for its customers. At the same time, the company offers round-the-clock customer support to users to ensure a seamless and cost-efficient experience. “With NeüRMS, you no longer need to pay a web designer to build a website for you,” Olaniyan said. 

The NeüRMS founder added that there is no need for their customers to acquire new hardware. Once signed up, the solution is accessible, operates smoothly on all existing desktop and mobile devices, and complies with different operating environments, including IOS, Android, Windows, and Web OS. This disruptive solution is set to revolutionize how Nigerian and African retail, distribution, and hospitality SMEs are run by leveling the playing field to compete with their larger counterparts. 

“NeüRMS is a way of life. The customer was part of the journey from its conceptualization to design and coding. We had retailers, engineers, and entrepreneurs across sectors working with us to ensure we solved real problems and met real needs. This is why we confidently call it a new standard for retail management,” Olaniyan said.
