Time, Resources, Processes, and Impact … New Systems, New Rules … More SOX!
Some people refer to the moment in time when everything is finally laid out before them by all their constituents and the pieces all finally fall into place as an “Aha Moment.” That “Moment” is closer than you think; that moment is NOW!

Director of Lucernex Client Services, Jim Short, discusses the NRTA Conference Highlights.
What a difference a year can make! The energy at the NRTA conference this year was definitely around moving forward not just treading water. With the economic picture still cloudy and unsettled, the conversation on technology spending remained conservative. BUT, a new theme emerged – it is time to act!
The conversation around “acting” focused on three areas:

Manager of Lucernex Lease Analysis products, Mike Hammerslag, discusses recent progress by FASB / IFRS.
I have blogged previously about the tentative nature of the efforts between the FASB / IFRS. To some of you this has may have appeared harsh, while to others, it likely seemed an accurate view of FASB/IFRS positioning. In my reading of changes to the FASB/IFRS position, it true that FASB and IFRS are making progress. The most recent accomplishments from the recent meetings of these two groups are:

Retail technology expert and Lucernex President, Joe Valeri (see Joe’s management summary here), discusses one takeaway from the recent joint NRTA / Lucernex survey on retailer FASB readiness.
We recently concluded a joint survey with the National Retail Tenants Association (NRTA) focused on the retailers’ perspective of the impact of the FASB changes and their readiness for those changes. One of the great things about collecting this much data at once is that many different dimensions can be explored. The finding that intrigued me the most was HOW retailers are planning to solve the problem and WHO they were involving in the resolution. This finding accentuated for me the vast advances the retail industry has made in both technology and process integration over the past 10 to 15 years. (more…)

I recently attended the ICSC ReCON in Las Vegas. It was a wonderful opportunity to mingle with current and prospective clients as well as leaders in the real estate world. As Vice President of Product Management for Lucernex, I naturally have my ear to the ground regarding technology and tech issues and how they affect retail.
It was an exciting event this year with attendance much stronger than in recent years.

Manager of Lucernex Lease Analysis products, Mike Hammerslag, discusses his recent trip to CoreNet’s annual conference.
Good Morning! I have just returned from the CoreNet Global Summit in Chicago and I am glad to report that it was a fantastic event.
Perhaps the highlight for me was none other than the Monday morning keynote speech by Greg Lindsay. Mr. Lindsay did the finest presentation on agglomeration (under the guise of changing social dynamics) that I have ever seen! And remember that compliment comes from a former academic who actually taught the topic for 10 years. (more…)

Manager of Lucernex Lease Analysis products, Mike Hammerslag, discusses the current state of the upcoming FASB changes.
A little more than two (2) years ago the Boards published their Discussion Paper, Leases: Preliminary Views. Fast forward to today and a known calendaring of the Final Document due date of 2Q-2011 or put another way June 30, 2011, and it seems that we are less then ninety (90) days away from knowing the outcome. So doesn’t it seem odd that so much is still “tentative.”
Now I must admit we do occasionally see that one or the other or sometimes both of the Boards “affirmed the decision in the leases Exposure Draft,” but is certainly feels like there are too many “tentative(s)” with less than 90 days until decision time! (more…)

IWMS expert and Lucernex President, Joe Valeri (see Joe’s management summary here), discuss the risk of NOT buying a Software as a Service (SaaS) Cloud delivered solution.
Since Gartner coined the term IWMS and lumped in all similar vendors including those focused on Store Lifecycle Management (SLM), it has become increasing hard to tell the difference between IWMS and SLM. Some companies provide SLM, or a point solution and call themselves IWMS and others are truly IWMS vendors and call themselves SLM but just within the retail industry. In truth, while there is an overlap of some of the core features there are marked differences in the needs of the end user, the focus of the applications and how the solutions were developed and are delivered.
