Selecting POS data equipment: A dilemma for retail management

Abstract

Most retail managements at some time or other must consider the application of EDP equipment at the point of sale in retailing. This article suggests a strategy for companies confronted with this dilemma; it attempts to marshal the factors involved in reaching a decision. It is a synthesis of the views of retailers who have been through this experience formulated into a decision‐making framework.
