The need

Automating the store ordering processes by providing the stores with algorithm-based order proposals to increase process efficiencies and reduce overstocks, out of stock and wastage. The solution was supposed to be built and continuously developed as a functional prototype. This meant it needed to be able to interact directly with the core systems and business logic of Coop.

Our solution

Project team designed, developed and agreed upon a single set of unified business processes and standard system solutions, across all departments and areas for forecasting, replenishment, order execution of promotions, allocations, and one common gateway for stores.

Results

• Demand and order forecasting
• Automated order proposals for stores and exceptions management
• Delivering order proposals for promotions to the stores
• Strategies to determine order proposals for stores
