Let’s walk through an example of improving on-shelf availability. First, let’s meet our VP. He could be a leader in a manufacturing company or a service company who represents a manufacturer…
Actionable. Real Time.

“Ideally I’d like to:
•Increase sales by 13%
•Increase promotional uplifts by 50%
•Improve new item sales by 15%
•Help my customers reduce inventory by 15%
But my challenge? POS data isn’t fast, detailed, or accurate enough for me to fully accomplish my goals.”

“Ideally I’d like to:
•Become known for 100%, flawless execution, on-time, every time
•Reduce operational issues and turnover
•Increase call and rep productivity metrics
•Reduce expenses to remain competitive
But my challenge? Our business is extremely complex. I need a simple way to manage it. We just implemented ESP to give us the tools we need to succeed.”

“Sam’s given me a project to increase his On-Shelf Availability. Here’s my plan:
•Run a sales-metrics survey to find and correct issues, gain facings, sell cases•Use ESP’s follow-up feature to ensure issues are getting resolved•Use ESP’s dashboards to find opportunities•Direct my field force at the opportunities•Work with Sam to calculate ROI based on sales we’ve procured•Use ESP’s scheduling system to keep tight controls on labor, expenses, and task completion
So let’s go to work. Here’s what we found…

Ok. We’re a month into service and here’s our data.
Sam and I have identified Ahold & Safeway as huge opportunities. From studying this chart, we see that they are our #1 OOS & Void opportunities, yet we are already gaining facings in both and selling more cases in Ahold.
![Page 9: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Just so I have a frame of reference I want to take a quick look at Safeway by product.
I set my filters and apply.
![Page 10: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Hmmm. We’re gaining a lot of facings on Brown Free.
I’ll drill in.
![Page 11: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
As I suspected I’ve got a major out of stock issue with Brown Free. But I’m selling tons of cases and gaining facings.
Ok. Let’s jump over to Ahold.
![Page 12: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
I drill down into Ahold to see what’s going on.
OK, I see Stop & Shop is the problem.
It’s not tags or signs as Stop & Shop is high 90% compliance.
![Page 13: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Drilling down further, I can see the main problem is Boston.
![Page 14: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Drilling down even further, I can see the problem is fairly evenly distributed across territories.
I will email the territory manager once I have more details.
![Page 15: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
On a hunch, I hop over to the visit analysis board to take a look at how much time we’re spending in Ahold.
Whoa. Safeway?
![Page 16: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Clearly, there’s a problem. Despite tons more visits & hours in Safeway, it’s highest in Voids and 3rd in OOS.
Two insights:
•Get Safeway service in line with average results per call•Transfer some budget from Safeway to Ahold
![Page 17: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
On that note, let’s take a look at OOS by branch overall.
Yep, Boston is a major problem as is Arizona. I quickly confirm that is the Safeway issue.
Now I’m even more confident in my actions.
![Page 18: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
How about voids?
Hmmm… a quick drill down there confirms my suspicion that there’s a huge Safeway opportunity there as well.
![Page 19: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
A quick check of facings tells me there’s nothing jumping out at me.
I’ll save that for another day.
![Page 20: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
I want to grab some photos for my emails to my managers. I set the filters as I like, page through FB like photos, and export the ones I want. I might also take a quick look at a map…
![Page 21: On Shelf Availability through Execution Excellence](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081413/5466f76faf7959f1238b75c6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

“Results so far?
•Sales are increasing via better OSA in Ahold and Safeway
•Promotional uplifts are improving
•Speed to shelf on cut-in’s is dramatically better
•My customers are able to reduce some inventory.
And my challenge? Gone. I get data all day long… even email alerts about critical issues.

All dashboards updated as soon as rep’s submit their work.

“Ideally I’d like to:
•Have the system keep me on the most important visit, doing the most important tasks
•Have all the multimedia project , sell sheets, volume & distribution information -- and collateral on my device
•Be alerted of things I’m in danger of missing
•Be confident that my work is saved
But my challenge? Chaos in the field. Despite excellent intentions, there’s so much going on… things often fall through the cracks.

•I have everything I need in terms of electronic documents to succeed all the time
•If I get backed up (say, an emergency reset) I get an email alerting me that I’m about to be late on a visit
•I can check and verify my work the moment I’m done.

“Before ESP, we didn’t really have a way to schedule and track completion of our various projects. That was a major problem.
The system we were using before didn’t a way to schedule definite people, times, days, tasks, and durations. Everybody was expected to ‘just know’ where to go and what to do.
We chose ESP for five reasons:•Powerful scheduling , completion, approval & automatic task follow-up tools•Powerful dashboard tools•Their willingness to customize the system to our needs•Predictable price point•Their thought leadership

•I’ve increased store-door visits by 33% without a budget increase
•The system automatically targets and sets objectives so I can focus on hiring and training
And my challenge? Gone. I have my life back.

A couple of additional points I’d like to cover:
•It’s not enough to just report these problems, they need to get fixed.•Often times, that requires collaboration with the retailer. As Steve will tell you below, they’re too busy to remember your one SKU.•That’s why ESP provides the store manager with a list of suggestions, and the store manager can check off what he’s committing to do. He then gets an email reminding him of what he’s committed to do.•My field rep also gets those tasks automatically assigned to her next visit to follow up and make sure it gets done.

“Ideally I’d like to:
•Know who’s coming to my store and when so I can make better labor decisions
•Have vendor partners who understand execution and On-Shelf Availability
•Have execution problems brought to my attention early enough to impact my sales targets
•Be reminded of (and be followed up with on) tasks I agree with field service reps that we will execute
But my challenge? I’ve got 35 to 50 thousand SKU’s which means I have that many problems. I run 100 mph all day long every day just trying to keep up.

“As a store manager, I love ESP:
•Because visits are scheduled, I get an email of who is coming to my store, when, and for what
•My ESP vendor partners understand execution, completion and FOLLOW-UP
•Because I can count on scheduled visits, I can count on having execution issues raised reliably
•ESP vendor partners make my job easier by reminding me of what I’ve committed to do.
But my challenge? Oh it’s still there. Just not with ESP vendor partner’s SKU’s!

“I’ve leveraged my partnership with Sam to get average sales per SKU per demographic.
When we identify and correct OOS, tag & Void issues we:
•Bounce our data against Sam’s POS data to compare average OOS duration against stores we service. By applying average sales in the category against shortened OOS durations, we prove lift, and therefore ROI.•Use Sam’s POS data to determine the same numbers for voids, except we get to apply all sales for a quarter to our value.•Justify the cost of our service and provide direct ROI to same and the retailer.
