How It Works

Three Pillars of Retail SFA for Saudi Arabia

Modern trade KAMs work a buyer calendar across the Kingdom's hypermarket and supermarket chains. Baqala coverage reps run van and pre-sales beats through souqs, baqalas and mini-markets. Sell-out flows back from the cloud DMS. One app, one outlet master.

Modern Trade KAM Calendar

KAMs run buyer meetings, listing reviews and planogram sign-off at hypermarket and supermarket branches on a weekly cycle. Route planning reworks the day when a buyer call in Riyadh or Jeddah shifts.

Baqala & Traditional Trade Beats

Reps cover souqs, wholesalers, baqalas and mini-markets across Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam and the smaller cities between them. Van sales bill on the spot; pre-sales books for next-day delivery across the Kingdom's long inter-city distances. Shelf checks and order capture run on the same store interface.

SAR Sell-Out Dashboards

Analytics roll up by channel, format and city. 1Voice AI answers "top Jeddah baqalas by sell-out this week" in plain English. Listing-drop and out-of-stock alerts reach KAMs before the next buyer review.

Complete Platform

GPS Attendance, Format Beats, Order Capture, Collections

A full retail SFA stack on one cloud: geo-fenced attendance, format-aware beats across modern trade and baqala coverage, offline order capture, mada and wallet collections, shelf audits and SAR dashboards for KAMs, ops and finance.

Geo-Fenced GPS Attendance

Reps and KAMs punch attendance with selfie AI and a geo-fence at the outlet or the modern trade branch. It works offline across long inter-city routes and stays reliable through the summer heat, syncing the moment signal returns. Workforce dashboards split KAM and baqala coverage rep productivity.

Format-Aware Beat Plans

Hypermarket and supermarket branches sit on a weekly KAM cycle. Wholesalers get a fixed slot; baqala and mini-market clusters run daily van beats. Outlets are pinned by GPS across sprawling urban centres and long desert routes. Route planning re-optimises the day and tightens ahead of Ramadan and Hajj-Umrah demand spikes.

Offline Order Capture + DMS Push

Van and pre-sales reps book orders against the listed range with live stock, scheme and credit status. DMS handoff allocates and dispatches from the distributor, and secondary sell-out feeds the brand view so replenishment keeps pace through Ramadan's short, sharp demand window.

SAR Collections + Expense Claims

Reps record cash, mada, STC Pay and SADAD-style settlement against each invoice, with credit ageing on screen. Field expense claims and leave covering Ramadan and Hajj-Umrah scheduling close the loop, timesheets export payroll-ready.
