Retail planning is a fine balancing act. You must have the merchandise that customers want to buy in each store and sales channel. But you don’t want too little or too much, and suffer lost sales or markdowns as a result. And, today, you have to do it across multiple sales channels, increasing the complexity significantly.

J. Crew, KarstadtQuelle and OfficeMax are just three retailers that are managing this complexity, by using SAP Merchandise and Assortment Planning (SAP MAP) to effectively anticipate customer demand and sales. As a result, they are increasing margins and maximising sales across their product lines and sales channels.

SAP is offering you a free, personalised analysis to help you understand how SAP MAP could help your company.

SAP MAP combines comprehensive strategic, location, merchandise and assortment planning functionality with sophisticated markdown planning, shelf optimisation, style management, purchasing and allocation capabilities. As a result, retailers can plan more effectively and respond to sales trends much earlier and faster, maximising profitability and sales.
