WM Barr, home of brands Goof Off, Klean-Strip, DampRid, Mold Armor, and Citristrip, is tapping revenue intelligence tech as a means to identify sales opportunities, plan and forecast demand, and bolster retail partnerships.
The home improvement products company reports it was looking for a way to automatically aggregate and standardize data from its 850 or more retailers and supply chain partners.
WM Barr has teamed up with Alloy.ai to spearhead this initiative, leveraging the omnichannel revenue intelligence platform to provide real-time analytics to drive sales, marketing, and supply chain decisions.
The company hopes to gain near real-time sales and inventory data from the investment, allowing for a better-aligned supply and demand process and top-line revenue growth in the longer term.
The platform also has the capacity to track point-of-sale trends, identify lost sales resulting from out-of-stock items, flag phantom inventory issues, and offer data-supported replenishment suggestions, a feature that WM Barr VP of sales, Ricardo Gonzalez-Alduenda says is a “critical” capability, adding that “converting data into valuable insights" will "help us better manage our portfolio.”
