But what if there is an innovative solution that not only saves time and money, but also increases the satisfaction of your employees? This is exactly where our <strong>InnovateSAP<\/strong> initiative comes in with the development of a groundbreaking UI5 app by the service provider <strong>HO2<\/strong> .<\/p>\n<h3>The Initial Situation<\/h3>\n<p>The products on your shelves sell unevenly. Some are constantly sold out, while others linger longer than necessary. The result: daily, time-consuming replenishment rounds and an uneven flow of goods. An inefficient system that costs both resources and nerves.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ho2-gmbh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/DALL%C2%B7E-2024-02-07-04.45.30-Visualize-a-retail-scene-where-shelves-are-unevenly-stocked_-some-are-practically-full-while-others-are-empty.-The-setting-is-an-ALDI-SUeD-store-with--jpg.webp\"><img data-dominant-color=\"81827d\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #81827d;\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5335 not-transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ho2-gmbh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/DALL%C2%B7E-2024-02-07-04.45.30-Visualize-a-retail-scene-where-shelves-are-unevenly-stocked_-some-are-practically-full-while-others-are-empty.-The-setting-is-an-ALDI-SUeD-store-with--640x366.webp\" alt=\"Unoptimized Facings\" width=\"640\" height=\"366\" data-wp-pid=\"5335\" data-pin-nopin=\"nopin\"><\/a><\/h3>\n<h3>Our solution<\/h3>\n<p>With the clear goal of revolutionizing shelf optimization, we took an agile, iterative approach. Starting with a mockup in SAP Build Classic, we refined our solution step by step \u2013 always in close exchange and after feedback from our users. The development was based on state-of-the-art technologies, including SAP <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ho2-gmbh.de\/news\/von-der-idee-zur-umsetzung-wie-ho2-sap-ui5-projekte-realisiert\/\">UI5<\/a> on the SAP <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ho2-gmbh.de\/news\/btp-serviceueberblick-mit-use-cases\/\">Business Technology Platform (BTP),<\/a> using the powerful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ho2-gmbh.de\/news\/sap-hana-cloud-skalierbarkeit-und-flexibilitaet-fuer-dein-business\/\">HANA DB<\/a>, CAP, CDS Views, oData Services, SAP <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ho2-gmbh.de\/news\/sap-identity-service-ein-ueberblick-und-anwendungsszenarien\/\">Identity Service and SAP Data Intelligence<\/a> . Our goal: an intuitive app that not only visualizes the optimal filling of the shelves, but also enables adjustments in real time. As you can see, we use BTP&#8217;s many technologies to create <strong>innovative<\/strong> solutions.<\/p>\n<h3>Implementation<\/h3>\n<p>The way to get there was to create a Proof of Concept (POC) app to demonstrate the technical feasibility. This important step helped us identify the missing pieces of the puzzle \u2013 such as shelf dimensions. This was followed by the agile development of two apps: one for displaying the optimization suggestions directly in the market and another for manual correction if the standardized facings do not meet individual needs. This process has been rolled out gradually and with great care worldwide.<\/p>\n<h3>Results<\/h3>\n<p>The results speak for themselves. Less replenishment, less overhang and significant cost savings. Our solution not only represents a significant improvement on previous processes, but also paves the way for a new era of rack optimization \u2013 efficient, user-friendly and future-oriented.<\/p>\n<h3><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ho2-gmbh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/DALL%C2%B7E-2024-02-07-04.35.01-Create-an-image-representing-a-retail-environment-where-a-new-facing-optimization-app-has-led-to-cost-reductions.-The-setting-is-a-modern-supermarket-jpg.webp\"><img data-dominant-color=\"747f86\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #747f86;\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5336 not-transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ho2-gmbh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/DALL%C2%B7E-2024-02-07-04.35.01-Create-an-image-representing-a-retail-environment-where-a-new-facing-optimization-app-has-led-to-cost-reductions.-The-setting-is-a-modern-supermarket-640x366.webp\" alt=\"Facing Optimization\" width=\"640\" height=\"366\" data-wp-pid=\"5336\" data-pin-nopin=\"nopin\"><\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3>Innovation &amp; Clarity<\/h3>\n<p>Our approach combines <strong>clarity<\/strong> in goal setting with <strong>innovative strength<\/strong> in implementation.
