Store Communications and Compliance Feedback

The cloud-based nature of VM EXEC as a Software as a Service (SaaS) solution offers several advantages in facilitating seamless communication and collaboration across different levels of the organization:

 

1. Accessibility: Because VM EXEC is accessible through any device with a web browser and internet connection, authorized users can access it from anywhere, at any time. This enables real-time communication and collaboration between the VM team, store associates, and other stakeholders, regardless of their physical location.

2. Centralized Access: VM EXEC allows for centralized storage and access to all relevant information and resources, including store fixture inventories, store directives, fixture planograms, and compliance photos. This ensures that everyone has access to the most up-to-date information and eliminates the risk of outdated or conflicting instructions.

3. Real-Time Execution Monitoring: Store directives created by the VM team can be
viewed at the store level, enabling store associates to execute visual presentations while referencing the required presentation on handheld devices. This real-time monitoring facilitates prompt execution to accord with merchandise calendars and ensures alignment with corporate standards.

4. Digital Documentation of Completed Execution: Upon completion of execution, digital photos taken using handheld devices are uploaded to VM EXEC and made available for viewing by authorized users at head office, regional offices, or area offices. This allows for quick visual comparison of execution with authorized presentation, providing valuable insight for merchandising and operations teams.
