Men’s wear retailer Tailored Brands Inc. said it selected retail technology solution provider Aptos Inc.’s sales audit product in an effort to streamline financial transaction auditing processes. The investment, which was not disclosed, comes as the retailer continues to expand its omnichannel offerings across its brands, which includes Men’s Wearhouse, Moores, Joseph Abboud and Jos. A. Bank, among others.
Aptos’ sales audit solution is designed to improve financial visibility as well as help retailers execute better informed merchandising and financial decisions in an environment that includes sales across multiple channels.
“The company will leverage Aptos sales audit to validate and relay accurate and timely transaction information throughout the enterprise, integrating data from its point-of-sale and legacy back-end systems, for improved decision making, streamlined operations and reduced costs,” the companies said.
