RELEX Solutions has introduced RELEX Mobile Pro, an advanced AI-driven in-store execution application for retailers, suppliers, wholesalers and manufacturers.
RELEX Mobile Pro is a solution for retailers looking to consolidate in-store tools and processes. It gives employees an accurate store ordering and tasking offering, with a particular focus on managing the complexities of the fresh business.
More than 40 percent of grocery retail sales came from fresh departments last year, making it critical to ensure the fresh department is always fresh and in stock.
By combining the RELEX Mobile Pro solution with AI-driven, machine-learning capabilities of RELEX, customers can overcome fresh-specific challenges, including poor inventory visibility, product availability and presentation to consumers.
Pairing targeted, exception-based workflows with science-based recommendations, the RELEX offering can boost store personnel engagement, ensure product availability and optimize customer service.
“RELEX Mobile Pro is purpose-built to optimize in-store ordering while also providing an all-inclusive task management offering. This enables the automation of manual tasks and boosts efficiency, so store personnel can shift their focus to high-value tasks,” said Tom Charlton, VP of product, forecasting and replenishment.
“This new offering has been created to help our customers create a significant step-change with their in-store processes, creating competitive differentiation while also leveraging best-in-class data science to ensure the right products are where they need to be, every time.”
RELEX Mobile Pro, combined with the RELEX fresh item replenishment capabilities, uses AI/ML to address challenges like understanding store inventory levels, customer purchasing patterns for date-sensitive products and prioritizing tasks to provide a better customer experience. It also helps optimize stock management by ensuring products are stocked correctly, reducing spoilage and out-of-stocks, boosting sales and improving store labor efficiency.
RELEX Mobile Pro offers a range of capabilities to streamline inventory management and enhance operational efficiency. Users can review and amend orders, leveraging suggested replenishment amounts and making modifications based on stock counting updates.
The solution also allows for ad-hoc order creation to address unexpected needs on the fly. With item scanning and search functionalities, users can access product-specific data while in-store.
In addition, the RELEX unified offering enables users to check stock balances, conduct counts and make necessary updates. With alerting features, users receive focused alerts for specific value-added actions, enhancing proactive decision-making and operational responsiveness.
