In the Fast Moving Consumer Goods market time is critical. Delays in reacting to issues may result in lost sales, or worse… a lost customer. Having the tools to allocate resources when and where a problem or obstacle arises will ensure that you are ahead of your competitors.
A KPI is a type of performance measurement that helps you understand how your value chain, organization or department is performing. A good KPI should act as a compass, helping you and your team understand whether you’re taking the right path toward your strategic goals.
Once key performance areas and indicators have been identified, minimum thresholds and targets must be set. The Cognizance platform looks for issues linked to these KPIs that are taking place on the ground, what items are out of stock, what items are overstocked, are items promotionally compliant?
