“The digital transformation of Penti took a big step as we combined our business processes under one roof. As a result of pre-season planning with Solvoyo, we reduced labor costs, balanced the work distribution across our teams, and most importantly improved decision-making based on data-driven recommendations to pursue our higher targets.”
“With a network of 9800 stores, supply chain disruptions and uncertainty are normal for us, we keep opening hundreds of new stores and multiple DCs every year. With advanced analytics and automation, we planned for this level of complexity way ahead of our competitors.”
“80% of IT tools investment fails if the partners don’t strive to continuously improve and adapt. That is what sets our partnership with Solvoyo apart.”
“Shorter lead times create opportunities to increase the budget allocated for in-season buying decisions based on sales performance and trends. With that comes the need for leveraging advanced analytics to support these buying decisions. This is where Solvoyo adds value. We enable data-driven decision-making by providing insights, alerts, and actionable recommendations.”
“Solvoyo has been a very effective solution partner in our fast growth and digital transformation journey. Using Solvoyo’s platform for fashion planning solutions, we were able to bring automation to buy planning and size optimization decisions.”
“When I write or speak about supply chain management, I always state that the purpose of a supply chain is to do one thing – enable growth. I believe Solvoyo is the optimal supply chain platform to help companies achieve the growth they desire.”

Solvi — From Insights to Actions
Solvi, Solvoyo’s AI planning agent, goes beyond surfacing where the season is tracking against financial plan to recommending exactly what the merchandising and buying team should do about it — before the window to act closes.
Across MFP, Solvi continuously monitors sales, margin, and inventory performance against plan at every level of the merchandise hierarchy — flagging categories where cumulative sell-through is diverging from the financial target early enough to trigger a budget reallocation,
In line planning, Solvi analyzes attribute-level performance from prior seasons to identify which product dimensions — price bands, fabrications, colorways, silhouettes — consistently drove sell-through.
In OTB management, Solvi monitors live category performance against budget — identifying which categories have the sell-through velocity to support a repeat buy before exit date, sizing the recommendation against remaining selling life, lead time, and MOQ constraints, and flagging categories where current stock cover trajectory will produce end-of-season residual inventory if intake phasing is not adjusted now.
Rather than waiting for a weekly buying review to surface these decisions, planning and buying teams work with Solvi as an always-on commercial partner that quantifies the margin and revenue consequence of every recommended action — so the most financially consequential decisions are prioritized first.

Frequently Asked Questions
Merchandise financial planning (MFP) is the retail process of setting sales targets, margin goals, inventory budgets, and Open to Buy (OTB) plans across categories, channels, and seasons. It is the foundation of strategic retail planning and the reference point against which weekly performance and in-season buying are measured.
Solvoyo’s MFP solution lets merchandising and finance teams set sales targets, margin goals, and inventory budgets top-down, middle-out, or bottom-up — at any level of the product hierarchy, channel, location, and time period. AI-powered scenario planning replaces manual spreadsheet cycles, with adjustments automatically cascaded to lower levels and actual performance tracked continuously against plan so course corrections happen during the season, not after.
WSSI is a tactical planning process that tracks weekly sales performance, inventory levels, forecasts, and expected receipts in one continuous view. It supports operational decision-making throughout the season by surfacing trends, gaps, and opportunities while there is still time to act on them.
Open to Buy management controls how much budget remains available for in-season purchasing after committed orders and on-hand inventory are accounted for. Solvoyo automates the calculations, integrates with approved MFP targets, and provides GMROI-based recommendations on how to allocate the remaining budget.
MFP sets the strategic targets at the start of the season. WSSI tracks performance against those targets every week and supports operational adjustments. OTB manages in-season buying decisions to keep purchases aligned with the approved MFP plan while responding to live performance data.
Solvoyo solves the planning challenges that erode retail margin and inflate inventory — including inaccurate demand forecasting, chain-average planning that ignores store-level demand variation, disconnected tools that force manual reconciliation across merchandise and supply decisions, slow planning cycles that miss market shifts, and markdown decisions made too late to protect margin. Across fashion, grocery, e-commerce, and omnichannel retail, Solvoyo replaces spreadsheet-based planning with an AI-native platform that automates routine decisions and gives every stakeholder a single version of the plan.
Yes. Solvoyo offers real-time, bi-directional integration with ERP systems to sync approved plans, purchase orders, and actual sales data. This eliminates manual reconciliation and ensures planning decisions translate directly into execution.
Solvoyo supports top-down, bottom-up, and middle-out planning in the same solution. Top-down targets disaggregate automatically to lower levels of the hierarchy, while bottom-up changes reconcile back against approved targets without manual effort.
