Cost Reduction Solutions
AccessVia Cost Reduction Solutions produce quantifiable reductions in cost by eliminating waste and improving efficiencies both at the corporate level and in stores. Our solution will identify the places where your organization can capture and take bottom-line savings.
These projects have the highest benefit following a Consumer Messaging Effectiveness Study, and can run in parallel with other solutions, such as Process Simplification and Sign and Label Automation projects.
Materials Cost Reduction Survey
This survey provides a detailed accounting of the costs associated with producing product signs and labels. The project gathers input from retailers’ teams during interviews and from answers to questionnaires and includes an evaluation of results from a Consumer Messaging Effectiveness Study.
Clients receive a Materials Cost Reduction Findings and Recommendations Report. This report includes:
- Direct spending on producing signs and labels, identified by sign type, for all sign and label production across the entire chain.
- Third-party costs for signs
- Waste created during sign and label activities
- Costs related to sign holders, label covers, or other sign materials
- Recommendations for places to cut costs through process improvements, print source changes, or material modifications.
Retailers will see the clear identification of places to reduce costs. We typically can find savings of more than 1 million dollars per year.
In-store Labor Efficiencies / Labor Standards Study
This study quantifies the current state of labor use for signing processes to provide a baseline for evaluating changes to process.
Parallel with a process review, it is important to quantify the labor usage of the current state and to validate the efficiency of new process design. AccessVia has expertise in the comprehensive review of current labor usage and development of labor standards and processes that streamline, and reduce, freeing up labor and saving associate and management time. We analyze the time required and the labor costs involved with all of the fixed and variable functions in the areas that impact regular, clearance and promotional signing. The intent is to identify the steps that can be eliminated with a new process and the labor baseline standards that can serve as ROI justification and KPI validation.
Clients receive a comprehensive report that includes:
- Baseline reasonable expectancy (RE) metrics for the current-state signing processes by store format (if appreciable variances exist by due to format or geographic differences)
- A average time per sign, problem sign %, and take down data calculations.
- Problem sign quantity and % by major selling area.
- An appendix of observation data collected for later review.
- Workload forecast recommendations.
Retailers will see accurate labor standards that provide the means for effective budgeting and labor allocation and provide the vehicle for measuring employee effectiveness and efficiency – producing savings in payroll dollars, company-wide.
