Store Operation

Securing execution, customer experience and appeal as an employer

An excellent store operation

Within retail organizations, it is a daily challenge to be ready for tomorrow. The spiral can quickly move in the wrong direction, causing you to lose your grip on your key KPIs, such as revenue, shrinkage and payroll.

Questions we often encounter:

  • How do we ensure a perfect daily rhythm, taking the right (0-1,2,3) counts at the quietest time?
  • How do we plan the people to the work and not the work to the people?
  • How do we ensure that residuals run consistently at the daily and weekly level?
  • How do we get everything organized so that we also have time to pay extra attention to the customer and do real (local) business?
