The problem this software solves

Layout not matching the planogram

Reported by voice or chat, layout not matching the planogram is caught late and logged with no evidence tied to the asset.

Wrong or missing facings

Wrong or missing facings goes unrecorded between rounds, so there is no proof it was found, owned, or fixed.

Incorrect shelf pricing

On a manual round incorrect shelf pricing is easy to miss, and hard to defend to an auditor after the fact.

Missing promotion

Missing promotion lands in a photo thread with no owner, deadline, or audit trail behind it.

How the software solves it

InspectWrk runs the whole planogram inspection cycle on one mobile system, from the scan to the signed-off report. Here is the loop your team follows.

  1. 1

    Inspect

    Open the right planogram checklist by scanning the asset or location QR tag.

  2. 2

    Capture

    Record photos, readings, and signatures, offline where signal is poor.

  3. 3

    Find

    AI flags likely defects from the photo and the inspector confirms or overrides.

  4. 4

    Correct

    A failed item becomes an owned action with a severity and a deadline.

  5. 5

    Verify

    The finding stays open until a named approver signs off proof of the fix.

  6. 6

    Report

    A branded report generates on close-out and dashboards update across sites.

Workflow

How Does a Planogram Inspection Cycle Run from Field Capture to Audit-Ready Reporting?

The inspection workflow, end to end: Plan → Inspect → Capture evidence → Record findings → Correct → Re-inspect → Report. Every step happens on one system, so nothing falls between the field and the office.

  1. 1

    Configure the Planogram Inspection Template

    Your planogram controls become a mobile template with required photos and readings on shelf layout versus planogram, facings and product placement, shelf-edge pricing, promotions and displays, and stock levels and gaps, aligned to brand merchandising standard and pricing regulations, so every site inspects to the same standard from day one.

  2. 2

    Capture the Planogram Check in the Field

    Inspectors complete the planogram inspection on iOS or Android, offline where signal is poor, recording shelf photo versus planogram, pricing photo, and gap record against each point before a named sign-off can close the round.

  3. 3

    Route Planogram Findings to Verified Closure

    A failed item such as layout not matching the planogram becomes an owned task with a severity and a deadline, and stays open until photo proof of the fix is reviewed, so planogram defects do not resurface unnoticed.

  4. 4

    Report Planogram Performance

    Every planogram inspection feeds live dashboards and branded exports, so store operations leads see completion, overdue actions, and risk per site without assembling a report by hand.

Capabilities

What the software handles for planogram inspection

The capabilities that matter for this workflow, and what your team can do with each one.

Programme Scheduling and Statutory Clocks

Across multi-site planogram inspection rounds, planogram Inspection scheduling ties each renewal to its asset and owner, so Retail cycles stay defensible without a manual tracker.

Structured Field Capture

Where planogram inspection evidence has to hold up, field teams run planogram inspection checks on a guided template that captures evidence inline, replacing loose paper and chat threads.

AI-assisted Evidence Capture

On every planogram inspection cycle, AI assists planogram inspection capture by reading photos for common faults, so field teams confirm rather than transcribe.

Portfolio Dashboards

For Retail teams running planogram inspection, store Operations Leads track planogram inspection risk hotspots and SLA breaches as they happen, instead of waiting for a manual Friday summary.

Audit-ready Exports

In Retail planogram inspection operations, every planogram inspection review gets a branded export and a searchable trail, so proof of what was checked is one click away.

Offline-first Mobile Apps

Across the planogram inspection portfolio, weak-signal sites stop being an excuse for missing planogram inspection evidence, because capture and sync are decoupled on mobile.

Coverage

What Does a Planogram Inspection Cover?

A planogram inspection covers shelf layout versus planogram, facings and product placement, shelf-edge pricing, promotions and displays, and stock levels and gaps. Store operations leads capture a photo and a reading on each planogram point. They work offline where signal is poor, then sign the planogram round off. So every planogram record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

  • Facings and product placement
  • Shelf-edge pricing
  • Promotions and displays
  • Stock levels and gaps

How Should Retail Teams Pilot Planogram Inspection Digitally Without Disrupting Operations?

Pilot on one site cluster

Run the first planogram inspection cycle on one site cluster and compare it to your current process on capture speed, evidence completeness, and overdue actions before scaling.

Scale templates and roles

As more retail sites come on, give each role the planogram inspection views they need and align every template to the codes Store Operations Leads answer for.

Connect reporting and integrations

Connect planogram inspection evidence to your reporting and asset systems through the API, so Store Operations Leads get one dashboard and every downstream tool stays in step.

Before You Switch

Common Questions Before You Start

We already run planogram checks on paper. Do we have to change our process?

No. Your existing checklist becomes a mobile template, so the same checks run with photos, timestamps, and named sign-off attached. Only the capture changes.

Will field teams actually use it?

The check runs on the device they already carry, works offline where signal drops, and opens the right checklist from a QR scan, so there is no typing from memory.

What happens when a defect is found?

It becomes an owned action with a severity and a deadline, and stays open until a named approver verifies the fix with photo proof.

Frequently Asked Questions About Planogram Inspection Software

What does Planogram Inspection Software check on a planogram inspection?

Planogram Inspection Software runs a structured planogram inspection covering shelf layout versus planogram, facings and product placement, shelf-edge pricing, promotions and displays, and stock levels and gaps. Each point is captured on mobile with a photo and a reading, and a named inspector signs the round off before it can close. The same template runs on every site, so store operations leads work to one standard rather than a version that drifts between locations. Every record proves what was checked, when, and by whom, so the evidence is ready long before an assessor asks for it.

How often should a planogram inspection be done?

How often planogram checks run depends on duty, risk, and the standard you follow. Some are daily or pre-use; others run weekly, monthly, or at a statutory interval. Planogram Inspection Software sets the cadence per site, reminds store operations leads before a round is due, and flags anything overdue automatically. Each completed round is timestamped and signed, so the schedule is provably kept rather than assumed, and you can show exactly when the last check happened for any asset. Planogram Inspection Software moves planogram inspections off paper, WhatsApp, and spreadsheets into one timestamped record per planogram.

Which planogram defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?

The inspection targets the planogram failures that matter most: layout not matching the planogram, wrong or missing facings, incorrect shelf pricing, and missing promotion. Left unchecked, a fault such as layout not matching the planogram can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so store operations leads fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.

Which standards does Planogram Inspection Software support for planogram work?

Planogram Inspection Software keeps planogram checks aligned to brand merchandising standard and pricing regulations. The photos and readings each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, store operations leads export a branded evidence pack built from shelf photo versus planogram, pricing photo, and gap record, ready to hand over on the spot. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.

Can teams run planogram checks offline and across multiple sites?

Yes. Planogram Inspection Software is offline-first: teams complete planogram checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing shelf photo versus planogram, pricing photo, and gap record in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So store operations leads get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a plant room or basement never costs a round or loses a photo.

What evidence proves a planogram inspection was completed?

Every completed planogram inspection carries shelf photo versus planogram, pricing photo, and gap record, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, store operations leads can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
