Assortment Planning™

IRI Assortment Planning™ is an enterprise software solution built on leading edge technology that empowers data integration from both internal and external sources. Unlike any other assortment solutions on the market, IRI Assortment Planning is built specifically for the consumer packaged goods industry to work with multiple market data sources and transferable demand analytics. Whether you are planning for your entire chain or a hundred different store clusters, Assortment Planning helps you select the optimal assortment. It works seamlessly with your IRI Infoscan® databases and is capable of integrating data from other sources as well. IRI Assortment Planning is pre-configured with a best practice business process that incorporates your goals and rules, and calculates the transferable demand impact for any category you would like to evaluate. This ensures that category managers consistently select the best product mix. However, if not all categories are planned in the same way, or with the same data, the business process can be configured, allowing you to customize the data, steps, and validation points for different categories. In addition, the IRI Assortment Planning solution comes with capabilities which empower users to compare potential assortments side-by-side and allow collaboration between users and vendors, significantly reducing the amount of time required to approve and execute assortments. This gives you the opportunity to re-plan assortments for multiple store clusters several times throughout the year without additional time or resources.
