Key Use Cases
How teams use Sapien for Retail
Break down key drivers behind gross margin fluctuations
Decompose margin changes by price, cost, mix, and volume across every channel, region, store, category, and SKU. Know exactly why margin dropped and where to focus.
Identify which SKUs and channels are bleeding margin
Flag negative-margin SKUs, promo cannibalization, and vendor chargebacks at the store and channel level. Catch leakage before it costs you another quarter.
Proactively identify inventory imbalances before they become markdowns
Identify slow-moving, excess, and at-risk inventory by SKU and location. Model demand scenarios to right-size allocation and free up working capital.
Hold vendors accountable with full cost visibility
Separate vendor-driven cost changes from market shifts and quantify the dollar impact by supplier. Arm procurement to renegotiate with data, not scorecards.
Model pricing, promo, and expansion scenarios before you commit
Compare pricing changes, promo strategies, and new store or channel economics side by side with full margin impact. Quantify the tradeoffs instead of guessing.
