Step 01
Sprint-fit call
A high-bandwidth review of the current stack so we can see where storefront, ERP, payments, and reporting are drifting apart.
Retail operations sprintFocused first-fix engagement
Retail Ops Sprint for teams fixingRetail Ops Sprint for omnichannel teams fixing the breakdown between storefront, ERP, payments, and reporting.
Built for US omnichannel retail operators dealing with disconnected handoffs, unreliable reporting, and manual reconciliation that keeps resurfacing. TkTurners maps the operating stack, isolates the highest-leverage fix, and implements the first repair.
Discovery first. No on-page checkout. Scope only after the stack issue is clear.
Built for operators who need storefront, ERP, payments, reporting, and workflow automation to stop arguing with each other.

Representative retail breakdowns
This could be how it is for you too.
Real-world retail operating pressure tends to show up in a few repeatable ways. Use these representative breakdowns to see where your stack may be creating the drag.
StorefrontStorefront & Channel Ops
When new channels, promos, and order volume start creating exceptions faster than ops can absorb them.

FinancePayments & Reconciliation
When payouts, fees, refunds, and ERP numbers stop telling the same story at the same time.

The offering
What the sprint includes
The goal is not to generate a vague architecture deck. The goal is to understand the current operating stack fast enough to implement the first repair with conviction.
Step 02
Breakdown mapping
We map the handoffs, sync points, exports, and patchwork workarounds that keep operations moving.
Step 03
Data integrity audit
We identify where duplicate entries, stale records, and mismatched counts are distorting decision-making.
Step 04
Handoff redesign
We tighten the operating logic between sales, warehouse, finance, and reporting so teams stop correcting each other by hand.
Step 05
Immediate repairs
The sprint ends with the first fixes implemented, not just a slide deck explaining what went wrong.
The ideal fit
This sprint is for teams who can see the drag, but still need the first clean repair path.
It fits omnichannel retail brands whose stack has become operationally fragile, but who want a practical first move instead of a six-month transformation program.
- Your team loses hours every week reconciling orders, payouts, or inventory between systems.
- Storefront data and warehouse reality rarely line up without manual cleanup.
- Reporting depends on spreadsheet stitching instead of a clean operating view.
- You have outgrown the current setup but do not want a bloated enterprise rollout as the first move.
- Payment failures, refund handling, or partial syncs are creating avoidable service backlog.
Before and after
From operational drag to clearer control
Current state
The friction
- Whack-a-mole problem solving across departments
- Fragmented system ownership and unclear source-of-truth rules
- Manual work absorbing time that should go into growth
- Scaling that adds more exceptions instead of more control
Post-sprint
The precision
- A documented operating map of the current stack
- Clearer sync logic across the most fragile handoffs
- A first repaired connection in production or staged rollout
- A sharper roadmap for the next system fix instead of guesswork
The timeline
The 10-day roadmap
The sprint compresses diagnosis, redesign, and first implementation into one working sequence so the team leaves with real operational movement.
1-2
AnalysisDiagnostic phase
We plug into the current stack, inspect live data movement, and isolate the breakdown that is creating the most drag.
3-6
RedesignArchitectural blueprint
We redesign the handoff logic between platforms and teams so the operating model becomes simpler to trust.
7-10
ExecutionImplementation and handoff
We ship the first repair, document the operating rules, and leave the team with a practical next-step path.
Deliverables
What you leave with
Operational map
A clear picture of how orders, inventory, payments, and reporting move through the stack today.
Standard ops manual
Practical documentation for the revised handoffs, ownership boundaries, and maintenance expectations.
Repaired connection
The first high-leverage fix implemented where it will reduce real manual drag.
Scale roadmap
A prioritized view of what to tackle after the foundation is stable, instead of expanding complexity blindly.
Timeline
Typical sprint duration: 1-2 weeks
Engagement
Fixed-scope sprint with a clear first operational fix
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What if our stack includes custom systems or middleware?
That is normal for this type of sprint. TkTurners works from the actual operating stack in front of us, whether that includes SaaS platforms, custom middleware, ERP customizations, or brittle manual exports.
Do we need to pause operations while the sprint runs?
No. The sprint is designed to work around live operations. We review, map, and test with production constraints in mind, then sequence changes so the first repair does not create unnecessary disruption.
Is this a long-term retainer?
No. The sprint is a focused first-fix engagement. If the stack needs continued work after the foundation is stabilized, that can move into a separate implementation track.
Representative stack
The sprint is designed for the tools your team already depends on.
TkTurners works across the actual operating stack in front of the business, then focuses the sprint on the handoff where the most friction is accumulating.

Final step
Not sure whether this sprint is the right fit?
That is exactly what the first conversation is for. We look at the stack, clarify the highest-leverage issue, and decide whether this sprint is the right next move.
