Transitioning to Validis is so seamless you won't even notice the difference — until, of course, you see how well your store is received.
Within just eight weeks of choosing Validis, we can implement a comprehensive plan that will ensure a successful transition and an enjoyable experience for students and faculty. The plan that our team will outline with your college contract administrator involves three key components:
1. Acquisition. They finalize negotiations and outline requirements for a successful transition with the school.
2. Hiring/Training/Evaluation. A transition team comprised of trainers and senior department managers is in place within 10 days. In addition to assisting the store manager with implementing the plan, they're responsible for fully training existing staff and new hires in policies, procedures and systems. They then evaluate existing inventory and current capital expenses to account for items needing to be reordered or replaced.
3. Operations. Set in place to assist the new management and staff in the daily operations of the store, they guarantee that all requirements of the new contract are fulfilled in the early stages of transition. On-going training of the PRISM systems and accounting practices will be continued throughout this phase up to, and including, RUSH.
