SupplyPike is only in the retail supply chain industry, but 1 World Sync has a much broader application of its services/software. Reaching out to them may be a good idea.

On the FAQ at walmartluminate.com/faq that "Walmart Luminate is a new suite of data products that gives U.S.-based merchants and suppliers unprecedented access to rich, aggregated, customer insights that enable smarter, faster decision-making." I also found in the Privacy Policy that "The Site are directed to operations in the United States. Walmart Luminate does not offer services in Europe or the European Economic Area." However, in spite of this, everything that I am able to find on the subject is saying (1) that DSS will be decommissioned in Q2 and (2) that all suppliers need to transition. My assumption would be that Luminate will be required for suppliers outside the general U.S. region as well. It may be worthwhile to log in to Luminate to see. Your buyer should be able to answer the question for you definitively as he/she will be the primary person looking at the data.
