The Challenge
Before Amply, a leading apparel brand with over 350+ stores relied on chat groups and emails for their weekly visual merchandising audits. Store managers would spend hours creating PPTs with 50+ images, then send them over email to the Head Office.
Key Pain Points
- Manual PPT creation taking 4+ hours per store weekly
- Email-based communication causing delays and confusion
- Inconsistent audit formats across 350+ stores
- Manual review process consuming 11+ hours for VM team
- Poor compliance tracking and follow-up
The Amply Solution
Store managers no longer had to manually prepare PPTs or rely on endless email threads. We gave them a simple mobile app to capture and submit their VM audits on the go.
On the other side, the VM audit team got a powerful dashboard—one place to monitor all 350+ stores in real-time.
Amply AI stepped in to auto-flag incorrect submissions, cutting down the weekly back-and-forth. With live image validation, clean UI, and instant compliance tracking, the entire audit process went from manual and messy to smart, streamlined, and scalable.
