Planogram Compliance Management System for Retail Chains
Kissflow schedules a planogram compliance check per store on a recurring cadence, captures a photo of the floor against the approved layout, scores compliance against a consistent standard, and routes a miss into a corrective task assigned back to the store, instead of an unread note.
Trusted by leading retailers worldwide
The planogram says the display goes at the end of aisle four.
The approved planogram says the display goes at the end of aisle four, in a specific configuration signed off by the category team. Whether it actually sits there is a different question, one usually only answered when a regional manager happens to walk that aisle with a printed diagram in hand, if it gets answered at all. A planogram that is approved once at head office and never checked again after rollout is a document, not an enforced standard, and the gap shows up on the shelf as lost facings, a promotion never actually set up, and a competitor's product occupying space it was never supposed to have. None of that reaches head office through normal reporting, because nobody is measuring compliance, only assuming it because the planogram was distributed. By the time a category manager notices the sales numbers do not match expectations, the display has often been wrong for weeks. Kissflow schedules a compliance check per store on a recurring cadence, scores every submitted photo against the approved layout using one consistent standard, and turns a miss directly into a corrective task assigned back to the store, closing the loop instead of leaving it as an unread note.
Where planogram compliance quietly drifts from the approved layout
Checks happen on an ad hoc walk
A store gets reviewed when a regional manager happens to visit, not on a schedule.
There is no photo record
A compliance note is written down with nothing to verify it against later.
Scoring is subjective
One reviewer's idea of compliant differs from another's, with no consistent standard.
Misses do not become tasks
A finding gets noted, but nothing routes it to someone who has to fix it.
Six modules. From compliance check scheduling through compliance scorecard, in one connected app.
Configure planogram templates, check schedules, and scoring criteria.
Compliance check scheduling
A planogram compliance check is scheduled for every store on a recurring cadence, not left to whenever a manager visits.
Photo capture
The store submits a photo of the actual sales floor, taken against the approved layout it is meant to match.
Layout comparison
The submitted photo is reviewed side by side against the approved planogram to identify exactly where it diverges.
Scoring
Compliance is scored against one consistent standard, removing individual reviewer judgment from the outcome.
Corrective action routing
A miss on the score routes automatically into a corrective task assigned directly to the store responsible for it.
Compliance scorecard
Scores roll up by store and by region, showing head office exactly where compliance drift is worst right now.
From request to system of record in four steps
Initiate
A planogram compliance check is scheduled for the store on a recurring cadence built into the calendar.
Conduct
The store submits a photo of the actual display floor, taken against the approved layout it should match.
Flag
The photo is scored against the approved planogram using one consistent standard, and a miss becomes a corrective task assigned back to the store.
Record
Results and scores are stored, so follow-up is tracked to closure instead of a note that sits without action.
