Contracts filled in by hand
Hundreds of stores, supplier displays and weekly promotions mean piles of paperwork. The chain moved two of these agendas, secondary placement management and contract generation, into Power Platform applications built by SBID. Saving over 320 hours a month, the solution paid for itself in two months.
Problem: two agendas full of manual work
Supplier displays were arranged and tracked by hand, with no unified view of what stands where and until when. Contracts were prepared one by one, document after document.
Solution 1: an app for secondary placements
The Power Apps application covers the display's whole life cycle:
- A unified register of displays and their placement in stores
- An approval process before a display reaches a store
- Installation and removal instructions for individual stores
- Mobile tracking right in the store via QR codes
- Every display traceable from approval to removal from the store
Solution 2: automated contract generation
A Power Automate automation prepares contracts from templates, files them and sends them to the right people. Documents that used to mean hours of manual filling are ready in minutes.
Result: paperwork in minutes instead of days
- 320+ hours saved every month across both agendas
- Return on investment in roughly two months
- Contracts are created automatically, with no manual filling
