Consumer electronics retailer Batteries Plus has made a deliberate, multi-year modernization journey that it said has positioned it to scale artificial intelligence (AI) across its business.
Karthik Jambulingam, senior director of enterprise architecture, shared with Digital Commerce 360 how Batteries Plus has transitioned its core systems to a scalable, cloud-enabled, and data-driven infrastructure.
His team called the “strategic evolution” a way of “positioning Batteries Plus to more effectively deploy AI solutions that enhance the customer experience, improve operational efficiency, and accelerate business growth.” Jambulingam said Batteries Plus’ focus has been on building a “future-ready” and “AI-ready” foundation.
“The AI readiness gap is something many organizations miss,” Jambulingam told Digital Commerce 360. He called this overall modernization approach “AI-Ready Enterprise Architecture.” Batteries Plus is No. 956 in the Top 2000 Database.
