Why retail WFM is no longer just about the schedule
Retail has fundamentally changed. Stores now play a critical role in fulfillment, while associates are expected to manage increasingly complex tasks through connected tools and workflows. Legacy systems are struggling to keep up.
This Gartner® Market Guide outlines how CIOs and operations leaders can evolve workforce management to improve both operational performance and the associate experience.
What’s inside the 2026 retail Market Guide
This report explores the evolving vendor landscape and highlights key shifts shaping retail workforce management:
- AI in store operations: Build a modern labour optimisation foundation by deploying AI-driven forecasting, schedule automation and skills‐based matching.
- Associate augmentation: 67% of CIOs plan to increase their investments in associate-facing GenAI assistants this year
- Unified commerce execution: Integrate WFM with POS, traffic counters, IoT sensors, inventory updates and fulfilment signals so the system can detect demand shifts and trigger intraday labour adjustments.
- More autonomous operations: By 2028, AI-enabled skills management will allow 40% of open shifts to be filled autonomously by matching specific certifications (e.g bakery, pharmacy) to associate preferences without manager intervention.
