Merchandise planning & open to buy

Our OTB technology and expertise empower you to carry the right goods, in just the right amount, at exactly the right time.

We power retail success through spot-on forecasting, proven planning, and hands-on expertise

 

Accurately matching stock to customer demand can increase profits by thousands in a single class. Multiply that by every class, across all locations, and you’re looking at a massive opportunity.

Our proven inventory planning leverages a deep understanding of your store data to maximize cash flow—not just profit and sales—in every single class, month-in and month-out.

Not all Open-to-buy (OTB) plans are created equal

An open-to-buy (OTB) plan tells you how much of each class of merchandise you need to purchase each month. When followed correctly, an OTB plan increases margins, profits, and cash-flow, revealing how much money is available for reinvestment.

Management One’s OTB plans are founded on reliable data, advanced algorithms, and experience-based retail insight. By combining accurate sales forecasting, carefully calibrated inventory targets, and a fact-based approach to risk, we help you focus on your strategy and reach your goals.
