Revolutionizing Logistics & Supply Chain Efficiency through Advanced Data Engineering
Business Problem/ Scope of Work
Goal: Expand Scratch Ticket sales by allowing all retailers, including smaller, independent stores, to sell them via lottery Terminals.
The Client, the global leader in gaming, delivers entertaining and responsible gaming experiences for players across all channels and regulated segments, from Lotteries and Gaming Machines to Sports Betting and Digital. Leveraging a wealth of compelling content, substantial investment in innovation, player insights, operational expertise, and leading-edge technology, our solutions deliver unrivaled gaming experiences that engage players and drive growth.
The business problem addressed in this case study is the limited availability of Scratch Tickets to customers due to the current restriction of sales to only retailers who have lottery Terminals. This limitation means that not all retailers, including smaller, independent stores, can sell Scratch Tickets, which in turn limits the number of customers who have access to them.
Additionally, when a Scratch Ticket pack is activated, all the tickets in the pack are ready for sale/validation, which can lead to overstocking and wasted resources. The goal of this case study is to explore how to expand the availability of Scratch Tickets to customers by enabling 3rd party retailers to sell them, and to address the problem of overstocking by providing a new activation and validation process.
Business Solution
The proposed business solution for this case study is to implement a software solution that allows retailers, including those without Gaming Company Terminals, to activate Scratch Tickets individually at the time of sale. This software solution would be integrated with the retailers' own point of sale devices, allowing them to activate and validate Scratch Tickets as they are sold to customers.
This solution would greatly expand the availability of Scratch Tickets to customers by enabling 3rd party retailers to sell them, which in turn would increase revenue for the gaming company. Additionally, by activating and validating Scratch Tickets at the time of sale, the company would be able to avoid overstocking, reducing wasted resources and increasing efficiency. This solution would help to increase the revenue and reach of the company.
Technical Solution
The proposed technical solution for this case study is to make changes to the lottery solution architecture to implement the new feature of individual Scratch Ticket activation at the point of sale. The changes will be made to the following components:
Retailer Services Module: A new Terminal and Teller Inventory privilege bits will be added to allow for In-Lane Transaction.
IPS Module: Two new pack statuses will be added to the Scratch Game Inventory API functions to support in-lane transaction. A new module will also be added to support the new Ticket by Ticket Activation concept.
POA/CAP Module: These modules will be updated to include proper validation responses when packs with tickets that are not in the activated status are attempted to be cashed.
Reporting Module: The BI/LSP report modules will be updated to include In-Lane transaction transition statuses in various Retailer Inventory reports and Promo reports.
API Calls: New API calls will be included to allow for the following instant transactions via ARC tool: Instant In-Lane Order Confirmation, Instant In-Lane Pack Activation, and Instant In-Lane Ticket Activation.
