ABOUT YOU’s main challenges in 2019 came from the trap of success. The most pressing issues were:

  • Rapid business growth and expansion into new markets
  • Complex business processes due to coexisting different business models (Own Stock, Drop Ship, Fulfillment) and complex flows
  • High volumes with over 500,000 items and 3,500 brands to manage
  • The need for speed and flexibility to accommodate more than 45 million unique active users per month

Their old process of Excel spreadsheets was adequate to a point. Their model had an exponentially increasing number of users and process complexity. What’s worse, they were pouring too much time and too many resources into up-front preparation before analyzing and planning even one KPI.

KIVALUE met with ABOUT YOU several times to talk about what would be the best solution, and they found the full-scale implementation of the Retail Planning solution was the best option.
