The concept

As an independent European expert on stock loss IMCo offers a neutral and experienced view of several aspects of the problem and provides industry and retail businesses with innovative solutions customized to the specific needs.
We have formulated a phased procedure that guarantees a fast and successful collaboration. This model for projects has proven itself time after time.

1.) Determining the status quo
How much stock loss is there? Which product segments are affected? Where and how does theft take place? Who is stealing? Which risks are there in the supply chain?

2.) Identifying and choosing suitable solutions
We compile a list of possible combinations of organizational and technical solutions. In correspondence with our client we identify the best approach and initiate a test plan.

3.) Test of the solutions
With the help of modern statistics we choose a selection of test markets and implement the techniques we agreed on. We help in the process with data collection and training – and we also provide trouble shooting where required.

4.) Implementation
After the tests are finished we determine the results and analyze the actual effects and values in terms of ROI, customer and staff satisfaction and many other aspects. We then help you decide on the best possible solution for your individual needs and plan the roll out across your outlets.

5.) Checking the results
To make sure the solution is working perfectly we periodically check on selected outlets and reassess the effects and whether any adjustments are needed.
