Pro-Merchant
Proactive
Merchandising
Designed specifically to assist merchandisers in becoming more proactive and organised — meeting commitments in a world of 6+ buying seasons and ever-shortening lead times.
How Pro-Merchant works
18 integrated features covering every aspect of the merchandising workflow — from initial costing through to final delivery.
Access stock prices at time of costing — copy similar style costings to develop new ones quickly and accurately.
Track all product development activities and buyer-wise business generation based on volumes of development.
Search styles based on discrete features — find any style instantly without scrolling through endless spreadsheets.
Create templates for fabric processes, sampling, pre-production activities, and trimmings — then associate templates to styles.
Auto-generate Time and Action calendars and analyse deviations at all ends — track delayed activities, fabric, and trims status through TNA.
Create to-do lists, mark and prioritise critical activities, and create pre-alerts for critical milestones before they become delays.
Generate Bills of Materials for every style directly from costing — raise purchase orders and monitor goods receipt seamlessly.
Complete stock control of fabrics and trims — monitor file handover lead time, sample planning, and delivery performance.
3-level hierarchy — right information to the right person
Pro-Merchant is designed on 3 levels of hierarchy within the merchandising department — separate screens for each role giving crisp, relevant information to all concerned.
Day-to-day task management, TNA tracking, activity prioritisation, and pre-alert management — everything needed to stay on top of commitments.
Division-level overview of all order status, deviation alerts, team performance, and buyer-wise business generation — actionable at a glance.
Full factory-level view — management decisions based on current situation, internal customer monitoring, and external supplier evaluation.
