About IPMS
IPMS incorporated in 1995 to provide retail consulting services, planning, process development, software, and management services. In 1998, the company absorbed the technology, operations and services of Intelledge Corporation, a leading electronic shelf labeling and kiosk technology company.
In October 2007, we were awarded a patent, U.S. Pat. No. 7,287,001, for retail shelf strips and the production and use of retail shelf strips. We have continued to develop and improve our processes and systems, further confirming that "we are the authority" in retail shelf strip production. The result of this work has helped retailers across the country significantly improve revenues and efficiency in store and given us un-matched experience and capabilities.
Focusing on the retail industry, IPMS has established itself as the premier provider of business and workflow improvement in the execution of retail merchandising programs. We provide retail consulting, planning, process development, software and management services.
Mission
Our mission is to link Planning and Execution to provide excellent results from the center of the store.
Value
Our patented products/services significantly reduce the stocking labor cost for new/remodel stores and resets, improve pricing integrity, consistent revenue improvements, and store compliance to merchandising plans.
Experience
IPMS has experience across many segments of the retail industry, particularly in grocery, convenience, pet, hardware and drug stores. This expertise includes management services, patented store set processes and services, business analysis, modeling, design/build automated solutions, retail software and hardware development, integration and quality assurance.
The Point of Difference
We work back from the store shelf, through the retailer to the supplier, to help ensure consumers find what they want, where it should be, when they want it, at the right price.
It's about the STORE
