Merchandising Expertise

An EPM project aligns commercial and financial objectives with the reality of your assortments. It improves buying precision, automates data consolidation, and streamlines trade-offs between performance, margin, and inventory.
Teams gain reactivity, reliability, and consistency in constructing and managing the product offer.

EPM solutions offer a multi-dimensional framework ideal for managing assortments by store cluster, channel, category, or currency.
They help model assortment diversity while preserving brand coherence, resulting in targeted, balanced, and profitable assortments within a controlled budget.

Success depends on high-quality product data, clear and robust planning processes, and strong user engagement. A modern EPM solution enhances collaboration across Buying, Finance, and Merchandising, enabling decisions based on reliable and shared assumptions.
