Drive Higher Margins
Let’s Revolutionize Urban Outfitters Merchandise and Assortment Planning
Designed specifically to tackle omnichannel complexity and market volatility, innovative retail planning solutions facilitate fast, data-driven decisions. With the ability to visually manage assortments and drag-and-drop allocations multi-category retailers can reduce time in the planning cycle for better analysis and time to forecast.
Centric Planning eliminates surprises (and spreadsheets!) with Machine Learning (ML)-led what-if scenario modeling, giving powerful insights and decision-making capabilities to merchandisers so they can prepare and quickly adjust when needed. This forecasting ability allows product development and merchandising teams to develop realistic sales estimates and make profitable in-season revisions with full visibility into raw materials costs, product margins and assortment product mix.
