Operations
Jim is the Chief Operating Officer at a multi-location grocery store. He wants to convert two of his checkout lanes to a self-checkout in each of his stores that don't currently have a self-checkout option. There's a problem... Jim's grocery chain has 700 stores, and he can't remember exactly which ones have self-checkout without going through an old spreadsheet and trying to piece together the information.
There's another problem... Jim only has a certain budget that he can allocate to this project in the current year, and he's not sure how many he'll be able to do. He knows the cost of each checkout lane conversion, but he doesn't know how many he'll need.
Jim has two options:
- Spend countless hours digging through spreadsheets and databases to figure out exactly which stores don't currently have self-checkout
OR
- Use our software to filter out the stores that don't have self-checkout and easily determine the cost of the overall project.
Since the number of stores needing self-checkout conversions won't all be able to able to undergo the changes within his annual budget, Jim can now easily dig in deeper. With our software, Jim quickly filters out the stores by region and then sorts them by annual sales volume. Now Jim can intelligently prioritize the stores that need the conversions first and which ones can wait for a later budget.
In a few short minutes, Jim was able to turn data into information, allowing him to make an informed business decision.
No guess work, no investigative work- just Jim taking control of his Operations.
