Opportunity: We are always looking for better ways to localize our product selection to better serve our customers. A software application that combines store clustering, predicting values for limited distribution products, and assortment optimization all-in-one would be ideal. Even better, it can do this with just our existing POS data, without having to set up and train AI models or use external datasets.

Solution: Using AssortEdge, we can now simply drag our mouse over the store dendrogram and click to change store clusters and assortments simultaneously. We can finally determine the best number of localized assortments based on our business metrics and goals, not confusing clustering statistics.

Opportunity: We need something like a planogram generation system for assortment. We should be able to easily create different assortment scenarios for all our stores quickly and easily so we can spend our time evaluating results. Ideally the software should allow us to ‘what-if’ different assortment scenarios in real time.

Solution: We have streamlined our assortment optimization process into a single workflow which is both fast and precise. We are now generating more detailed, targeted assortments in less than half the time it took us with our legacy systems. AssortEdge has replaced separate store clustering and assortment applications with a single web app.
