Lecture 6 - part 2: trinity model Flashcards
The assets in retail:
1) Goods -> variable assets
2) Bricks -> fixed assets
3) People -> human assets
Productivity or efficiency?
It is not about the lowest cost solution but highest efficiency solution.
The model, per column:
First column: - Margin Second column (productivity): - Sales Rate - Goods intensity - Floor productivity - Self service ratio - Labour productivity Third column (efficiency: - Stock efficiency - Floor efficiency - Labour efficiency
Margin
Gross profit margin / sales
Sales rate
Sales / stock
Goods intensity
stock / retail floor space
Floor productivity
sales / retail floor space
Self service ratio
retail floor space / FTE
Labour productivity
sales / FTE
Stock efficiency
GPM / stock
Floor efficiency
GPM / retail floor space
Labour efficiency
GPM / FTE
Three rules of thumb:
1) Optimize GMROI
2) Increase stock as long as GMROF increases
3) Optimize GMROL
GMROI
Gross margin return on inventor (stock efficiency)
GMROF
Gross margin return on space “floor” (floor efficiency)
