Implementing planning software across 350 stores and four distribution centres
The context
National discount retailer — 350 stores, 4 DCs. Demand and replenishment planning across a large store network was manual and inconsistent, tying up inventory while leaving availability gaps in store.
What we did
- Implemented advanced planning and inventory optimisation software managing demand and replenishment planning
- Covered 1,500 SKUs across 350 stores and 4 distribution centres
- Process redesign, role alignment and change management around the new system
The results
- Initial 10% inventory reduction
- In-store service levels maintained at or above 97.5%
- Systemised planning replacing manual effort
