Planogram & Store Compliance

Efficient collaboration and easy compliance control on one integrated platform

Displaying the right products in the right place at the right time increases sales and customer satisfaction. Thanks to their comprehensibility, planograms are a great tool with which it is possible to manage the display in stores. However, a necessary condition for success is a well-managed process starting with the creation of a planogram at the headquarters, through its implementation in the store to the retrospective control and evaluation of the quality and results of implementation.

Quant offers integrated tools and solutions for the entire process.

Planograms tailored to store’s needs

If the store is to implement the planogram correctly, it must be prepared exactly for the specific equipment. If the shelf is 76 cm wide, the store cannot receive a planogram for 80 cm, otherwise we risk that an important product will not be placed, simply because it did not fit.

Quant contains advanced algorithms and artificial intelligence which from a template common to hundreds of stores will create optimized planograms exactly tailored to the dimensions and marketability of specific stores. Planogram previews are immediately available and the user can adjust the display criteria according to the needs in order to be satisfied with the result.

Planogram publishing

Publishing hundreds or thousands of new planograms to stores in Quant is a matter of seconds. Stores are automatically notified by e-mail and after logging in to the Quant Web, they have previews of new planograms available, including automatic visualization of changes compared to old planograms. When publishing planograms, it is possible to set implementation dates and an automatic notification system.

The immense advantage of Quant Web is that there is no need to install anything new in stores. All you need is an internet connection and a web browser. Quant Web is responsive; therefore, it works great not only on the desktop but also on a tablet or smartphone.

Kontrola implementace

When confirming the implementation of the planogram, the store can use the camera of a tablet or phone and easily upload a photo of the implementation. The stores thus have a greater motivation to precisely implement the planograms and the headquarters has a good overview even without physical store visits. The control of implementation photos can be largely automated thanks to the built-in artificial intelligence which can be trained to automatically recognize products in the photo and evaluate compliance with the planogram.

“We chose Quant because of the complete solution for the entire process which includes support for assortment selection, store space planning, display planning and easy in-store implementation.”

Photo documentation & Image Recognition

Quant can be used as an effective tool for photo documentation of sales areas. Photos can be assigned with notes not only to the store as a whole, but also to specific fixture.

Thanks to our innovative product recognition technology using artificial intelligence, you can quickly and easily identify potential problems. Just upload a photo and Quant will automatically evaluate the degree of compliance, allowing you to immediately determine the quality of the planogram's implementation.

Planograms with Image Recognition activated

How it works

Image recognition works best if you share planograms directly in Quant using a device with a camera, such as a smart phone or tablet. The implementation photo is then automatically matched with the corresponding planogram, streamlining the process and saving your valuable time.

Our advanced AI then analyzes the uploaded photos and provides immediate feedback on the quality of the implementation.

If a position shows as empty, Quant automatically distinguishes whether the store has the corresponding product in stock or not.

Your HQ has a list of all the implementation images across all your stores, ranked by quality, so you can efficiently focus on solving the most pressing issues.

Main benefits

Quick Setup

The main advantage of Quant's Image Recognition is its ease of deployment.

No need to install cameras or other expensive technology in your stores. All you need is a camera on a mobile device that can take a photo with at least 10 Mpix resolution.
No need to upload extra photos of products from many angles. The images of the products you already have in Quant to create planograms will usually suffice.
No need to wait for the AI to retrain to recognize a new product. We detect products based on similarity, so you do not have to upload your product photos in advance.

Efficient Process

Delegating the tedious task of comparing planogram to in-store implementation images to our AI tool will enhance your operational efficiency. You can easily free up some manpower previously used for manual planogram compliance checks, while still having the benefit of minimizing lost sales and maximize customer satisfaction with carefully crafted product display.

Fully responsive

Quant web version is fully responsive, allowing you to use Image reconigition on a desktop with already existing photos or capture images of shelves directly in the store on a tablet or smartphone through Quant web app.

Integration with Task Management

If our image recognition detects that planograms are not correctly implemented, you can create a follow-up task directly in Quant Task Management. Whether a product is missing without a valid reason or is misplaced, tasks necessary to fix this can be assigned to the appropriate employee directly in Quant.

Integrated solution

Using many separate tools leads to inaccuracies and delays and is very cost inefficient. If you are already a Quant user, you will appreciate the seamless integration of Image recognition directly into our platform without the need for any special implementation on your end. We offer a comprehensive user-friendly retail solution that is designed to ensure that the data you once input is fully accessible and usable across the entire system, eliminating the need to duplicate entries and saving your time.

Easy to use

An intuitive user interface without unnecessary complexity, a clear online manual and direct user support guarantee that users will quickly grow fond of Quant. Quant has long been one of the top-rated solutions in the Retail Management Software category on G2.

Unlimited number of users

The Quant Retail Planning edition does not limit the number of users. You will never have to solve the dilemma of whether it is worth making useful data and tools available to another user even at the cost of buying another license.
