The focus of ‘main stream’ planogramming software is in automating the store specific production of generic planograms. Planogram production is evolving in this way so that the unique financial demographic of a stores market can be appropriately serviced. The inherent flaw in this strategy is that the base template used is produced by an individual with all the usual failings of an individual. The solution to this problem is ‘group sourced’ via increased collaboration.

Dominion is the first and only collaborative category management tool. Users of Dominion meet in a virtual store with the assistance of the latest 3D imagery, VOIP and personalized avatars to work together in real time, using real time data to manage real time space challenges and agree on real time solutions. When the meeting is over, category management decisions are not only made but recorded on store layouts and planograms within Dominion.

As with a conference call, the dominion category management room can cater for as many stake holders as required. This enables your business to gain maximum advantage from all individuals with an interest in seeing your business succeed. Travel and accommodation expenses are reduced as the virtual environment allows all space collaborators to meet online from the comfort of their own office, catering for last minute meetings and changes to be scheduled moments before operational implementation.

Unlike competing category management applications, 3D store views are available as a result of a Dominion build instead of being the expensive and time consuming end product. Dominion does not require costly time consuming rebuild of data that exists within your operating business with CAD .dwg, JDA .psa and Nielsen .pln being seamlessly imported into the Dominion environment.

Collaborators benefit from more open access to space management information. Make further improvements to your Return on floor space by using Dominion. Access the wealth of experience and knowledge from your manufacturers / supplier’s organizations as well as increasing involvement from stores and internal departments. With internet access and authorization you can further utilize your most valuable resource, your people. Start acting as one with Dominion.
