Sigma Computing

Sigma for retail and consumer goods teams

Build AI apps for demand planning, inventory, and promotions, with agents that flag when results drift from plan and explain why.

  • Plan on live POS data

    Forecast, adjust, and review in a grid on the same data your stores report from.

  • Approvals that lock the plan

    Scenarios go to leadership, and approved forecasts lock so the numbers stop moving.

  • Agents that explain the miss

    Agents track results against plan and explain what’s driving the gap.

One retail plan

Retail plans live in too many spreadsheets

Merchandising, supply chain, and stores each keep their own version, and nobody is sure which forecast leadership approved.

TodayWith Sigma
Forecast overrides kept in disconnected spreadsheetsOverrides saved to the warehouse so every team sees one plan
Two dashboards, two answers in front of the CEOOne definition behind every report
Store misses explained on calls and forgottenStore managers record why they missed next to the numbers
Promotions approved in email with no record of the scenarioPromo scenarios approved with a full audit history
Franchisees get a monthly revenue numberEach franchisee sees and updates their own results
Lease decisions documented in slide decksCommittee decisions recorded with the pro forma behind them

From data to revenue growth

Each app pairs live data with an action, and agents watch the results.

Misses explained

Live store ops flash reporting

Store and region flash reporting on live POS data. Drill into any KPI to see what’s driving it. Managers note why they missed in the app, and an agent flags products trending off plan.

  • Daily flash on live POS data
  • Store manager comments saved to the warehouse
  • Agents automatically narrate developing trends

Approved plans

Forecast and approve plans live in your warehouse

Planners forecast demand and adjust it in the app instead of disconnected spreadsheets. Overrides save to the warehouse, so supply chain and merchandising plan from the same numbers.

  • SKU- and store-level forecasting
  • Planner overrides and approval flows
  • Agent alerts on stockout and overstock risk

Promo margin visible

Test what-if promotions before they go live

Merchants model price and promo scenarios against past lift and margin, then submit them for approval. Once the promo runs, an agent tracks results and explains any gap to forecast.

  • Price and promo scenario modeling
  • Approval workflows with full audit history
  • Agent tracking of lift vs. forecast

One customer view

Unify digital and retail performance data

Analyze the full customer journey without silos. Join e-commerce and POS data live in the warehouse to uncover cross-channel behavior and attribute revenue accurately.

  • Agent alerts on shifts in channel mix
  • Customer journey and cohort analysis
  • Attribution modeling on live data

Lease decisions

Build and approve lease pro formas for real estate committee

Build lease pro formas on live store data and route them to committee in the same app. Each approval updates the capital budget, so you know what’s committed and what’s left.

  • Lease renewal and committee workflows
  • Facilities work orders and R&M routing
  • Construction project management, from permits to punch list

Agents that watch the plan

Agents flag drift from plan and explain why

Agents watch sales, inventory, and promo lift on a schedule. Planners approve what changes.

  1. 1WatchA scheduled agent compares sales, inventory, and promo lift with the plan each morning.
  2. 2ExplainIt ranks the drivers, such as out-of-stocks on top sellers or promo margin, linked to the data.
  3. 3Approve the fixIt drafts an override or a transfer. A planner approves it, and it’s saved to the warehouse.

Retail and CPG FAQs

  • How do we join e-commerce and POS data?

    Join both live in your warehouse to analyze the customer journey across channels and attribute revenue, with no extracts.

  • Can we test promotions before they run?

    Model price and promo scenarios against historical lift and margin, route them for approval, and track results against forecast once the promo runs.

  • Can planners keep working in a spreadsheet?

    Yes. Sigma works like a spreadsheet, with the formulas planners already know, and calculations run in your warehouse. Targets and overrides entered in the grid save to the warehouse with who changed them.
