In 2022, A Few Cool Hardware Stores implemented Epicor Compass, an Analytics and BI application that became a central reporting and decisioning layer for the retailer. Epicor Compass has been deployed alongside Epicor Eagle N Series and Epicor Eagle Inventory Planner to unify point of sale, inventory planning, and operational reporting across the organization.
The Epicor Compass implementation emphasizes ad hoc reporting, recurring dashboard delivery, and automated daily reports to managers, supporting category and merchandise class analysis, sales margin reporting, customer counts, and negative quantity-on-hand alerts. Compass is used for inventory management workflows including new item identification, negative on-hand reconciliation, returns and return consolidation, and actionable daily task lists, converting several pull processes into a push based reporting cadence.
Epicor Compass was integrated with Epicor Eagle N Series and Eagle Inventory Planner to provide a continuous data feed between POS, inventory planning, and analytics, enabling a single operational view for store managers and corporate staff. The implementation extended operational coverage to companywide B2B account management, where Compass dashboards track 600 house accounts, purchase frequency by department, and sales history to drive proactive account work.
Governance and process changes were embedded through recurring operational reports and task-driven workflows, which removed two to five steps from recurring processes and instituted daily reconciliation routines. Outcomes explicitly reported by the customer include a 25 percent reduction in negative quantity-on-hand, approximately $200,000 in freed cash flow tied to inventory reductions, and a 5.2 percent increase in revenue, while Compass usage strengthened internal controls for returns and shrinkage monitoring.
