Information Planning & Management Service

Since 1995, IPMS has provided products and services to several large national retailers. IPMS has also provided business services to several companies serving the retail sector. These retail partners have provided IPMS with the basis to create a suite of products enabling retailers to achieve corner-by-corner marketing. IPMS continues to work with... these partners to further refine its products for their needs. IPMS has developed extensive expertise in store operations, with particular emphasis on "center of the store" issues, dynamic space planning, store-vendor relationships, electronic pricing, and marketing. For example, we can reduce shelf stocking costs for new stores, remodeled stores, resets, cut-ins and category updates by as much as 70% and increase sales through faster opening of stores, and reduced "out of stocks" and "distribution voids". IPMS has found that most business decisions are made by the "C" level of the organization who are interested in the Return on Investment (results), not just technology. Through the use of our services the Retailer has realized a value of upwards of $4.00 a shelf foot, with an ROI of greater than 1000%. The average duration to implement IPMS services is between 90-120 days. Working with merchandising and technology executives, IPMS ensures product implementations are completed on time, within budget, and consistent with the customer's expected ROI.Read More
