Would Reducing the Number of Direct Vendors Benefit Your Organization?

Rather than the hassle and expense of working with and paying to hundreds or even thousands of vendors in some DSD categories, iControl can become your only vendor - and can move any category we manage to 100% EDI on day one.

SBT Is Your Goal, But Are Your Item File & Pricebook Ready for Prime Time?

Developing and maintaining a pristine item file and pricebook are absolutely critical steps towards a Scan-Based-Trading that the entire supply chain can trust. Without it, an SBT program cannot succeed. iControl does the crucial setup and maintenance work that builds and keeps trust.

SBT Programs Require Store Training & Oversight.

You can't expect your suppliers to accept SBT if you can't control the performance of each of your stores. iControl provides you and your field management with the information necessary to maximize scanning accuracy - and keep it there.
