The Problem: Why You Need Sales & Retail Execution

Your field sales teams are flying blind. Disconnected tools, manual processes, zero visibility into what happens at the shelf.

Without a unified SFA platform, field reps waste hours on admin instead of selling. Managers get outdated reports. Promotions go unmonitored. The result? Lost revenue, missed targets, and no way to course-correct in time.

Manual / Disconnected SFA

What you get without a unified platform

  • Reps plan routes manually – hours lost driving
  • Paper-based or fragmented order-taking
  • No visibility into shelf execution
  • Promotions executed blindly – no compliance tracking
  • Coaching is ad-hoc and undocumented

Business Value of Sales & Retail Execution

5 reasons a unified SFA platform transforms your field operation

Not just automation — a complete operating system for your sales force. Backed by 160+ implementation specialists.

Higher Sales, Lower Cost per Visit

AI-optimized routes (DRO) mean reps visit more stores with less driving. RAO guidance directs them to the highest-potential outlets first. The result: more revenue from every day in the field.

Real-Time Visibility Into Shelf Execution

Perfect Store scoring gives managers live KPIs — shelf share, out-of-stock, planogram compliance, promo execution. No more waiting for weekly reports that arrive too late to act on.

Orders and Promotions Under Control

Millions of orders processed monthly through a single system. Full promo lifecycle — from planning through execution to ROI analysis — so you know what works and what doesn’t.

Motivated, Developing Teams

Leaderboards, automated bonus calculation, and structured coaching programs keep reps engaged and improving. Managers run coaching sessions with data, not guesswork.

One Platform, No Silos

SRE connects with Image Recognition, Trade Data Hub, Trade Terms & Settlement, and One View analytics. Your field data feeds the entire commercial decision chain — impossible with disconnected point solutions.

The Optimization Trio: know what to fix, where to go, and the fastest way there

Three modules that work together as a closed loop — each one feeding the next. The result: every rep visits the right store, at the right time, with the right priorities.

Step 1

Perfect Store

Know what to fix.

Real-time KPI scoring during every visit — shelf share, out-of-stock, planogram compliance, promo execution. The system tells the rep exactly what needs attention before they leave the store.

Shelf share OOS detection Planogram audit Hybrid: manual + IR

Step 2

Retail Activity Optimization

Know which store first.

POI Best-in-Class

An intelligent command center that dynamically determines: the right store, at the right time, with the right offer. Combines Perfect Store data with external signals to prioritize where reps should go next.

Store prioritization Sales guidance Opportunity scoring

Step 3

Dynamic Route Optimization

Know the fastest way there.

AI-powered nightly optimization builds a 30-day rolling plan. Real-time traffic data, business priority signals (promotions, OOS risk, sales drops), and smart exception handling — your reps start each morning with a ready-to-go schedule.

30-day rolling plan Nightly AI optimization Real-time traffic

A closed loop: field data from Perfect Store feeds Retail Activity Optimization priorities, those priorities shape Dynamic Route Optimization routes, and optimized routes generate better field data. Every cycle sharpens the next.

FAQ

Common questions about Sales & Retail Execution

What is Sales & Retail Execution?

Sales & Retail Execution (SRE) is a complete Sales Force Automation platform built for FMCG field teams. It covers the full cycle: visit planning, in-store execution (orders, surveys, merchandising), promotions, targets, and reporting – plus advanced modules like Perfect Store, Dynamic Route Optimization, Coaching, and Motivation. 55,000+ users across 50+ countries rely on it daily.

Does it work offline?

Yes. The native mobile app (iOS and Android) is built for full offline operation – critical for field reps visiting stores with poor or no connectivity. Orders, surveys, audits, and route data work seamlessly offline and sync automatically when the connection is restored.

What are Core Modules vs. Advanced Modules?

Core Modules are the foundation every deployment includes: Sales Planning, In-Store Execution, Orders & Promotions, and Communication & Reporting. Advanced Modules are optional add-ons that boost performance: Perfect Store, Retail Activity Optimization (RAO), Dynamic Route Optimization (DRO), Motivation, and Coaching. You start with Core and add Advanced Modules when ready.

How does Dynamic Route Optimization (DRO) work?

DRO is an AI service that runs every night. It analyzes store locations, opening hours, visit frequencies, traffic data, and business priority signals (upcoming promotions, out-of-stock risk, sales drops) to generate an optimized 30-day visit plan for each rep. By morning, every rep has a ready-to-go schedule that maximizes store visits while minimizing travel time.

How does it integrate with our ERP and existing systems?

Asseco Platform integrates with major ERP systems (SAP, Oracle), CRM platforms, and data warehouses via standard APIs. Orders flow directly to your ERP. The Trade Data Hub handles data exchange with distributors and retail chains via EDI and other formats.

Which FMCG brands use Sales & Retail Execution today?

450+ FMCG implementations across 62 countries, including Kraft Heinz, Nestlé, Coca-Cola HBC, Henkel, SC Johnson, Imperial Tobacco, Pernod Ricard, Ferrero, and more. The platform supports 55,000+ active users globally.
