Frequently Asked Questions

What is category and assortment planning?

Category and assortment planning is the retail process of deciding which products to offer, in what quantities, and across which stores or channels for an upcoming season. It covers collection design, localized buying, size and prepack optimization, and the management of limited-time promotional products.

How does assortment localization work?

Assortment localization differentiates product offerings or timing across markets, store clusters, or regions to better match local customer demand. Solvoyo enables this through store clustering, store-level forecasting, and the ability to set different assortments, sizes, in-store dates, and depth targets by segment.

How does Solvoyo handle new product introductions without sales history?

New products are forecast using attribute-based models that identify the most similar historic items, translated into store-level demand estimates for the new product based on category, price point, and product attributes. Similar item selection prioritizes recent history to reflect current demand trends. For fashion retailers, attribute-based forecasts feed directly into initial allocation — landing the right quantities and size ratios at the right clusters from day one. Product attributes digitalized at the development stage flow directly into the forecasting and buying workflow, eliminating manual re-entry between development and planning.

How does size and prepack optimization improve inventory efficiency?

Size and prepack optimization determines the right size breakdown and prepack combinations for each store or region based on similar-item size-selling analysis. This reduces size imbalances, lowers inventory costs, and improves on-shelf availability for the sizes customers actually buy.

How does Solvoyo support in-season trading decisions?

Solvoyo’s in-season management capabilities monitor every active item continuously against its sell-through trajectory — generating automated repeat-buy recommendations for items tracking ahead of plan and markdown recommendations for underperformers, sized against remaining selling life and exit dates. Solvi, Solvoyo’s AI planning agent, surfaces prioritized action items with quantified business impact so merchants act on the highest-consequence exceptions first rather than building their own analysis from a WSSI report.

Can Solvoyo integrate with our ERP and PLM systems?

Yes. Solvoyo offers real-time integration with ERP and PLM systems to automate purchase order generation, sync master data, and reconcile plans across systems, eliminating manual data entry and reducing errors.

What planning efficiency gains can retailers expect from Solvoyo?

Retailers using Solvoyo consistently report planning cycle compression from days to hours, AI recommendation acceptance rates exceeding 90%, and measurable business results within three to six months of go-live.
