I am delighted to kick off 2021 with the expansion of VIPER Rapid Assessment™, a fast-track solution to help retailers detect hidden profit and eliminate operational inefficiencies in just a few weeks.

Based on positive customer results during the initial launch, VIPER Rapid Assessment is now rolling out to retailers of all formats. A three-step process, VIPER Rapid Assessment is proven to maximize financial liquidity amidst volatile economic times when every operating day matters.

 Step 1: Comprehensive detection of profit leakages. Combining state-of-the-art data analytics and Machine Learning predictive models, VIPER pinpoints profit drains by physical and digital channels, store locations, SKUS, operating functions, vendors, external partners, and fulfillment and distribution centers.

 Step 2: Optimize inventory. VIPER enables retailers to rationalize under-performing products and prioritize working capital and resources against the most productive SKUS. By unloading poor performing assets and inventory, retailers can generate cash to sustain and thrive.

Step 3: Maximize productivity down to store level. VIPER not only identifies incremental profit opportunities, but also recommends practical actions to improve performance and productivity down to individual store personnel and product level. Field and corporate management are poised to make sound decisions about which stores to reopen or close, and how a store’s fleet can be optimized amidst field personnel reduction.

At VIPER, we embrace the win-win philosophy. To help retailers succeed during these challenging times, we are offering a $1 million Profit Improvement Guarantee™. VIPER will deliver a minimum of $1 million in profit increase or pay the difference. When our clients win, we win!
