The Scalability of the Scan & Go Technology within the Retail Sector
The main aim of this article is to study the scalability of Scan & Go technology in organisations in the retail sector by identifying the main drivers and barriers to its implementation in physical shops. The central question is to understand which factors have the greatest positive or negative impact on the implementation of this technology and how they influence its effectiveness, customer acceptance and the possibility of expansion. This article aims to propose a model that helps organisations in the retail sector to clearly understand which factors facilitate or hinder the implementation of Scan & Go technology and evaluate the customer experience, contributing to better strategic decision-making in the future. This model is organized into three phases: Situation diagnosis (drivers and barriers), Multidimensional analysis of the customer experience and Implementation strategy, which highlights the importance of aligning internal operations with consumer expectations.
