Planogram Management Service
The Planogram Management Service is a new service offered by IPMS that develops and maintains planograms based on the retailers’ business strategies and merchandising rules. It allows the retailer to focus on the actual analysis of the product in the plan and not spend time on the mechanics, “Manage”. This service is a natural extension that complements our portfolio. We have extensive experience with store planograms that we handle daily from our current customers.
