Revya specializes in deduction recovery and trade promotion management for consumer packaged goods (CPG) brands that distribute their products through various channels. It efficiently retrieves the weekly UNFI backup along with detailed K-Solve data from KeHE, meticulously organizes each entry by chargeback category, correlates promotional entries with their respective authorizations, verifies shortage claims against both the bill of lading and proof of delivery, and systematically files any discrepancies within the dispute periods designated by each distributor. In terms of planning, Revya evaluates promotions based on incremental case sales derived from historical scan data, adjusted for cannibalization, and calculates the delivered cost to provide a comprehensive report on the true cost of service per channel, taking into account the impacts of spoils, fines, and chargebacks that arose from the transactions. Unlike other Trade Promotion Management (TPM) tools that only forecast expenditures, Revya goes a step further by analyzing the retailer's actions post-promotion for a more accurate assessment. With over $120 million in managed deductions, Revya has processed more than 16,000 deductions across 14 different distributors and retailers, which include major players like UNFI, KeHE, US Foods, Sysco, Lowe's, and Menards, showcasing its significant impact in the industry. This comprehensive approach not only streamlines financial recoveries but also enhances strategic planning for future promotions, making Revya an essential asset for CPG brands.
