Blockbuster rolls out RedPrairie HR solution

Milwaukee RedPrairie Holding said Tuesday that Blockbuster has completed its rollout of RedPrairie’s Execution Management solution in 500 stores.

Blockbuster completed the rollout in 10 weeks, and said it plans to implement the solution in its remaining stores.

According to Jeff Gloor, VP operations, Blockbuster, “Integrating Execution Management with our existing workforce management solution means our district managers can focus more time on coaching store associates and driving sales not only in day-to-day operations, but during specific promotions as well.”

Blockbuster is using the Execution Management and Workforce Management solutions to provide store-specific communication, gather store data quickly and accurately, and provide store on-time compliance data to all levels of the organization. As a whole, the two integrated solutions provide a greater degree of visibility and consistency.
