[Deventer, Netherlands] – Slimstock, a global leader in AI-driven supply chain planning and inventory optimization, and Colleqtive, the pioneer in smart mobile shopfloor execution solutions, wich enables real-time store stock accuracy, a key driver for replenishment have officially signed a technology value-add partnership. Together, the two companies are launching a unified, store-connected supply chain management platform designed to bridge the gap between central planning algorithms and front-line store execution.

In today’s fast-paced retail landscape, balancing optimal inventory levels with high on-shelf availability remains a critical challenge. While headquarters utilize sophisticated forecasting models, the reality on the physical store floor—shelf-space constraints, local demand spikes, and manual inventory tracking—often creates a costly operational disconnect.

The partnership between Slimstock and Colleqtive directly addresses this divide by establishing a seamless, continuous feedback loop between central supply chain teams and store personnel.

The Brain Meets the Hands: A Unified Retail Ecosystem

By integrating Slimstock’s robust AI planning engine (Slim4) with Colleqtive’s intuitive, mobile-first store execution tools, the combined platform delivers:

  • Synchronized Replenishment: Dynamic, automated purchasing and allocation models that instantly adapt to real-time store capacity and sell-through data.
  • Frontline Empowerment with Guardrails: A hybrid, decentralized execution model that gives store managers the flexibility to handle local ordering and cycle counts via mobile devices, backed by central safety guardrails to prevent overstocking.
  • Enhanced On-Shelf Availability: A drastic reduction in out-of-stock scenarios and phantom inventory, directly improving customer service levels and driving revenue.
  • Omnichannel Agility: Real-time visibility that turns physical stores into highly efficient fulfillment hubs for click-and-collect (BOPIS) and ship-from-store models.

We are thrilled to partner with Colleqtive to solve one of retail’s oldest challenges: the gap between the planner’s desk and the retail aisle,” said Stan Krupnik, Global Director of Partnerships. “By connecting our predictive supply chain platform with Colleqtive’s exceptional shopfloor execution tools, we are giving retailers a single source of truth. This means smarter decisions at HQ, less friction for store staff, and ultimately, a much better experience for the consumer.”

“True digital transformation in retail has to include the frontline teams,” added Niels van Golden, CEO at Colleqtive. “Partnering with Slimstock allows us to supercharge our mobile execution workflows with world-class AI intelligence. Store personnel are no longer just reacting to stock levels; they are actively integrated into a synchronized, efficient supply chain ecosystem.”

The joint solution is available immediately for retail enterprises looking to modernize their end-to-end supply chain operations, reduce waste, and maximize margins.
