Vision for AgileGrocers’ New Point of Sale (POS) System

AgileGrocers is a grocery chain with 250 stores across Canada. Thee stores have not had any updates to their store cash register equipment and software for more than ten years. The cash registers are continually breaking down and frustrating the cashiers. Lines are unacceptably long because each purchase transaction takes too long.

In the grocery industry, there is a trend to allow customers to check out their own grocery purchases. This reduces the need for cashiers and the cost saving can allow us to open up more checkout lanes. This vision statement describes the need for the new system as well as the proposed new functionality.

The team spends some time on the whiteboard mind mapping symptoms and root causes for the pain that the stores are experiencing with their current system. The salient points from the mind map, see Figure 12.1, were then captured as part of the vision statement (see Figure 12.2).
