Map an instant-retail fulfilment network
Operating question
If the team cannot see where stock sits, who replenishes it and when it can arrive, availability and delivery exceptions become separate firefights.
Start with products, stock, orders and delivery times, then define the roles of regional supply, stores and local hubs, including service standards and exception handling.
OPERATING SITUATIONS
Organize demand by local market, product, time and campaign cadence so forward stock and replenishment have shared facts and accountable ownership.
How the work moves
Structure demand signals by channel, market, product and time horizon.
Define instant-retail assortment, forward inventory, store and local micro-fulfillment hub roles, plus service expectations.
Connect replenishment, availability, local picking, delivery, stores or forward nodes and the final customer handoff.
Review exceptions, root causes and corrective actions so the operating model becomes more resilient.
