Marisa has selected a range of integrated Oracle Retail Merchandise Planning and Optimization solutions including Assortment Planning, Merchandise Financial Planning, Item Planning, Demand Forecasting, Size Profile Optimization, Clearance Optimization Engine and Allocation to assist the company in targeting assortments based on market opportunities and customer preferences. The fashion retailer will use Oracle Retail solutions to help collaborate effectively and efficiently across planning, merchandising and supply chain groups and to help improve margins. Oracle Retail Merchandise Planning and Optimization solutions will allow Marisa to obtain retail-specific, science-based decision support and use that information to tailor assortments to key market segments.

Oracle Retail solutions were selected, in part, because of the company's depth of retail expertise and customer and partner ecosystem. Marisa will also implement Oracle Database, Oracle WebCenter Portal and Oracle WebLogic Suite.
