Retail software solutions
By using our Additions software, retailers reduce the amount of POS that gets wasted or printed unnecessarily, minimising the impact each campaign has on the environment, reducing their carbon footprint and driving down cost.
Key features of Additions:
Store management – hold the details about your entire store estate, including window dimensions, shop-fittings, grades, allocations, all in a central database
Compliance – see how each store has deployed every campaign, with in-store images giving you visibility of a key campaign across your whole retail estate
Stock – manage stock items and allow stores to place orders for POS, track deliveries, get POD’s and manage stock levels
Campaign Management – dynamically allocate POS for each campaign, so each store only receives what it needs
Artwork Approval from multiple stakeholders – Additions includes the ability for multiple stakeholders to upload artwork, comment, approve and sign-off creative before production
Dynamic Templating – localised adaptations from master artwork templates allowing each store to localise centrally produced campaign assets and print in-store or centrally
SmartFit App
This iOS App allows you to have total control over the implementation of your retail POS campaigns in every single store. You can control your fitting teams, show installers ‘what good looks like’ and ensure all campaigns are executed with the utmost brand compliance.
It’s so simple to use and when utilised in conjunction with our Additions software, it becomes an enormously powerful tool for controlling the in-store environment.
Automated Stock Management
Working with our specialist team who focus primarily on stock management all stock is transferred onto our dedicated stock holding warehouse. Using our in house built software Additions we create a stock library with each item being coded and with thumbnail images to make it easily identifiable for all users. Each store is issued its own log in, giving complete control on what the store can view and can order along with approvals set to send alerts so central teams can control what you want to see and what your stores can do.
Additions is user friendly and has complete flexibility to sort the virtual library of stock in whichever way works best for you and your stores. The system has been designed to work the same way as most online shopping systems which people are familiar with minimising the need for training. We agree custom SLAs from the time of the order being placed to POS reaching store to manage store expectations. Our system also regularly reviews order frequency and identifies opportunities to take advantage of consignments and consolidation of deliveries.
Our customers benefit from:
- Speed to market increase of 60% which is imperative for new store openings and refits
- 40% reduction in the number of packs for stock call sent to stores
- 2017 to 2019 we were able to deliver 38% saving on total cost of stock call offs when comparing same 3 month period 2017v2019 for customers
- Users reported over 30 hours a month saved in processing time
- Central location to hold all POS artwork for stock elements to allow easy reprints
- Real time view of stock and what orders are being placed by the estate
