The company has more than 1045 stores in Latin America, a multi-format retail with a presence in five countries and with more than 140 thousand employees.
THE CHALLENGE
The customer required RGIS to provide the following:
- Coverage across multiple countries
- The capacity to be able to complete 250 stores
- Completion within a time frame of two months in the last quarter of the year
- Identify variances to existing asset register
Why RGIS?
Cencosud needed a solution to count the assets within the retail stores and identify variances across multiple countries.
Our Solutions
Cencosud partnered with RGIS to complete the retail asset count project, and provided the following:
Scheduled a team of three experienced RGIS auditors per store
Asset counts completed daily at multiple stores
All assets in each store were counted and reported on
Variances were reported in comparison to the existing asset register of expected quantities and locations
Results
Cencosud found by outsourcing the retail asset count project to RGIS, the following results were achieved:
All store assets were counted within the requested two month time frame
A total of 55,096 assets were counted across 250 stores
Conclusion
The customer was now aware of all assets, and is able to transfer items if required to other locations, rather than over ordering assets.
