Broad assortments, large numbers of suppliers and tight margins require a high level of automation, efficiency, and transparency.
DIY and home improvement retailers deal with complex assortments, up to 50,000 SKUs, including seasonal items and new product introductions.
Home improvement retailers have large numbers of suppliers, including international ones with unpredictable delivery schedules. Deliveries also come with various purchasing conditions and restrictions like full truckload purchases.
Low margin categories highlight the need for efficiency while slow moving items present a challenge because of their sparse space sales data and lumpy demand.
Many DIY and home improvement retailers carry green life products that require highly accurate forecasting.
