We help retailers develop the processes and solutions that improve bottom line performance by meeting the unique demands of all of their stores. This includes developing strategies for optimizing size profiles and ensuring that correct sizes of product are delivered to stores when they are needed. Our objective is to drive up sales by having the right sized products in the store when needed while driving down the cost of logistics by ensuring that case-pack sizes are optimized.

Our Size & Pack Optimization Services include:

> Size Profiling and Forecasting. We help you build the capabilities to define size/store/week demand profiles to ensure the right sized product is available at the right time. This includes helping you develop the processes and analytics to support accurate forecasting and improved decision making.

> Store Clustering. We can assist you in developing advanced store clustering to support purchasing according to demand profiles by size. This allows for more efficient analysis and buying while maintaining store-level forecast accuracy.

> Pack Optimization. We help you transform your buys into optimized pack-size decisions to ensure efficient logistics, timely replenishment and drive excess cost out. This includes translating merchandise purchases from the style level into optimized pack-level orders.

> Localized Assortments. We provide expertise in assortment selection and optimization, including the ability to develop localized assortments at the lowest level.

> Allocation Process Definition and Implementation. We help you analyze product performance and strategic fit against business objectives to determine the right mix of merchandise for the business. We balance performance with brand, regional, pricing and other strategic targets to establish the optimal population of SKUs.

> Solution Selection. We can help you evaluate and select the right tools and software to support size and pack optimization. In addition, we help design (or redesign) the business processes that make for more effective buying.
