PLANNING TRANSFORMED: HOW HAWES & CURTIS ELEVATED SALES AND STOCK VISIBILITY
Heritage menswear brand Hawes & Curtis had outgrown their Excel-based planning setup, with stock intake and weekly performance becoming increasingly difficult to track as the business grew. The goal was to implement a tailored MFP and WSSI solution on board, delivering real-time insight, a consistent planning process, and intuitive dashboards to replace their reliance on spreadsheets.
They've all worked in the industry as well, so they've got that great level of detail.
Hawes & Curtis needed a centralised platform to bring structure and visibility to their sales and stock planning. Their existing Excel-based approach was limiting agility as the business scaled, making it harder to track weekly performance and stock intake with confidence. The project focused on implementing a robust MFP and WSSI framework, alongside week-by-week reporting dashboards, with a deliberately lightweight and collaborative delivery approach that kept the team engaged and the solution grounded in their day-to-day reality.
And find out all about the highlights:
bdg and alstria have developed a tool for property valuation using the discounted cash flow (DCF) method to enable alstria to valuate its property portfolios more efficiently, quickly and cost-effectively – the volumes of data were simply no longer manageable in Excel and the processes were extremely time-consuming.
Real estate represents significant assets. A precise valuation of such properties is essential – for financial reporting in accordance with international accounting standards such as IFRS, for investor communication or for strategic management decisions. A particularly widespread and recognised method is the Discounted Cash Flow method, or DCF for short. But how exactly does this method work – and why is it considered to be so particularly meaningful?
When are modernizations due, which contracts are about to expire? The solution developed by bdg and alstria for property planning in the real estate industry collects these and countless other data in one slick application.
Planning and controlling are easier, and media discontinuities are avoided. All in all: an absolute win.
