Team vision ( title) About this work area
Team vision (text) The success of IKEA's e-commerce delivery and collection services is heavily reliant on a stable and cost-effective fulfillment network. This network is crucial to ensuring a seamless shopping experience for customers while optimizing operational efficiency and protecting the brand's reputation.
Fulfilment Network - A fulfilment network refers to the infrastructure and processes involved in getting products from a seller to a customer efficiently and effectively.
This network typically includes Warehouses, Stores, Suppliers, DC's (Distribution Center), Transportation Services and Technology Systems for managing inventory, orders, and shipping. By maintaining an efficient fulfilment network, businesses can ensure fast shipping, accurate inventory levels, and reliable service - key factors in staying competitive in the fast-paced world of e-commerce.
We are building a fulfillment network solution using event-driven cloud architecture. While we face numerous challenges, we are prepared and excited to become truly agile with modern architecture - and we hope to achieve this with your help.
We strive to build driven, empowered agile teams who understand priorities and collaborate effectively with other teams and domains. We're all in this together, supporting one another and sharing knowledge regularly.
Our goal is to be best-in-class - it's an ambitious target, but why settle for less? If you share that mindset, you'll fit right in and help us push boundaries!
We live by our values, and they're all important. I'd be happy to share more, but for me, the key ones are Togetherness, Simplicity, Leading by Example, and Meaningful Uniqueness. Reach out, and I'll explain them in more detail!
