One way to understand the significance of people’s role in quick commerce is to foresee their role in the value chain within the scope of an enterprise. Starting from the reverse, there is the function of last-mile delivery carried out by delivery executives. Their knowledge and understanding of local traffic play a direct role in achieving quicker deliveries. They are also important because they come in direct contact with customers, leaving more profound imprints on customer experience than any other touchpoint in the customer journey. In the fulfilment centres or hubs, important activities like picking, packing, and managing inventory are carried out. The speed and accuracy with which they work affect how quickly orders are made ready for despatch. Thus, the aspects of job descriptions, recruitment, training, SOPs, and technology assume significant relevance in improving the performance of employees. Organisational structuring, PMS, and work culture are also important areas to focus on here. Two things which significantly help in these retail operations processes are the use of 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 (𝗦𝗢𝗣𝘀) and best-fit IT solutions.
