POWERFUL PRODUCT

Rising to the challenge when it’s most important

Meeting customer needs is what resonates with Katherine Kirby, a leader who focuses on inclusive design. During the Covid-19 pandemic, Kirby had the opportunity to deliver impact through two key products: Vaccine Scheduler and Curbside Pickup. It’s big work that’s fulfilling. “The team member and customer technology, communications and workflow have to work in total harmony in order to deliver a seamless experience for our customers,” Kirby said. “Thinking through those complexities and orchestrating all the moving parts is very challenging but also extremely rewarding when we get it right.”

There are millions of people who turn to Walgreens for their health and well-being, and when we show up correctly for them, it’s an amazing feeling.

IN-STORE IMPACT

Leading the way for exciting updates ahead

Chris Swiderski recognizes how important a fluid checkout is for customers. “It’s critical to get it right with a smooth, intuitive experience,” he said. And while he and the team are focused on providing that experience at present, they’re also working on what’s around the corner: self-checkout. While this “quick-moving initiative” won’t be pursued this fiscal year, its potential rollout in the future could have enormous upside. “Walgreens will be able to alleviate congestion at checkout, modernize the point of sale experience, and free up team members for other activities.”

When our team builds software, we can walk into a store and use it. Our families and friends use it. Our neighbors use it. The amount of people touching the software we write each day is incredible.

Alina Goebel

SAP Test Management Lead

CONTINUING TO INNOVATE

Always striving to improve the experience

“What is particularly unique about Walgreens’ tech team is that they are always on top of cutting-edge technologies, all the while investing in their people, processes and tools,” said Alina Goebel. She’s well-qualified to say so, having been at Walgreens for more than 18 years, with a number of promotions to her name. The highlights keep coming, having recently steered test delivery for Walgreens’ implementation of SAP S/4HANA. “It replaced older systems and back-end technologies with more of a modern solution to improve operational efficiencies and drive digital growth,” Goebel said.

Working closely with technology, data and business teams, Walgreens aims to improve, personalize, and add efficiencies that can be directly transferred to the customer.
