Web-based communication between head office and store with the P'X Store Communicator facilitates the implementation of planograms.

Retail management: Automatically generated planograms for greater efficiency

The P'X Retail Solution from Perspectix gives retail chains and chain stores better communication and greater efficiency in retail management. The end-to-end digitization solution for store and fixture design, merchandising and assortment planning now automatically creates planograms for selected stores from existing information.

The P'X Retail Solution provides retail chains in the food, non-food and DIY sectors with all digitalization options in a modular software package. These range from store, point-of-sale and fixture planning to assortment planning and the planning and implementation of sales promotions. For assortment planning, the software visualizes planograms with articles and product carriers in the 3D environment. Other views display brands, suppliers, sales, margins or product categories directly on the product carriers. The P'X Retail Solution obtains the article data, handling quantities and delivery data from merchandise management and ERP systems as well as the relevant planning solutions from third-party providers.

Automatic planogram creation

The P'X Retail Solution supports retail chains with everyday changes to the product range by automatically creating planograms. The individual products, packaging or containers are automatically placed on the various product carriers according to defined criteria. New plans, discontinuations and sales promotions can be implemented quickly and efficiently by the head office. Sales figures, socio-demographic data and local conditions of each store, which are stored in its digital twin, are taken into account. Better product presentation leads to higher sales.

Optimal product presentation

Thanks to the high efficiency of planogram creation, companies can implement current sales trends and other results from data analyses more quickly in order to optimize product placement and increase profitability.

In addition, merchandising guidelines can be implemented consistently across different locations with automatic planograms. This strengthens the brand image and improves the customer's shopping experience. The P'X Retail Solution complements the planograms with decorative items and communication material to distribute them together.

Automatic planning leads to higher returns per shelf meter for retail chains. Savings in working time and resources and reduced warehouse management reinforce the competitive advantages of rapid adaptability.
