In-season budget allocations based on fashion trends

Excess stocks of slow-moving items or sizes can result in unnecessary markdowns and also disrupt cash flow, while not having sufficient stock of the right sizes can cause out-of-stocks and lost sales. 

Solvoyo OTB Management is an easy, fast and smart way to allocate an in-season budget based on the latest trends ensuring adequate stock availability for fast sellers. OTB Management provides insights for the budgeting decisions based on revenue and margin performance and ensures that the bottom-up buying decisions are automatically reconciled with top-down targets.

By integrating with Solvoyo Merchandise Financial Planning or other sources for Top-Down budgets, users can quickly access their approved targets, keep track of the confirmed purchase orders, and monitor the remaining budget in real-time.

Solvoyo brings you OTB Management solution with automated predictive models and prescriptive actions to support purchasing decisions based on GMROI and various business goals. Through automated diagnostics, users can quickly focus on items requiring action, understand the impact of sales trends on financial metrics and make faster and smarter decisions.
