Revolutionising Retailer Goods In-Bound: The Power of RAS

Revolutionising Retailer Goods In-Bound: The Power of RAS GFR (Good Faith Receiving)

Efficiency, accuracy, and accountability, these are the pillars of modern retail and supply chain success. Yet, when we look closely at in-bound deliveries, discrepancies still persist, initial audit findings show:

📦 0.25% error rate in ambient
❄️ 0.48% in fresh/chilled
👗 0.89% in fashion/apparel

And when comparing despatched vs. ordered, that error rate can surge to 6.4%, impacting customer availability by up to 1.8%.

Enter RAS GFR (Goods Flow Reconciliation), an innovational strategic concept, which has become the UK's industry standard over the last 5-years, transforming how we manage supplier goods in-bound.

The results? Game-changing:

📈 Improved accuracy, engagement, and accountability
Processes are streamlined, collaboration between Retailer/Supplier improves, and data integrity strengthens across the board.

💰 Faster supplier payments
Suppliers are rewarded with quicker payments, 85% reduction in claims and disputes, creating a more efficient and productive partnership.

✅ 100% charge-back on errors
Backed by independently validated information, charge-backs are no longer contentious, they’re fair, fast, and accurate.

🔄 A clear path to cost-neutrality
Charge-backs create a solid foundation for a cost-neutral operation, covering Goods In and Pick Accuracy.

RAS GFR isn't just a tool; it's a catalyst for operational excellence. It's helping us deliver better outcomes for our partners (8 of the UK's top 10 FMCG Retailers, in fact!), reduce errors, and ensure shelves are stocked when customers need them most.
