In today’s market retailers must optimize their portfolio.

Today's market demands that retailers optimize their portfolio and captial investments across more competitive locations, while managing higher development costs and stricter regulations, such as Sarbanes Oxley and FASB.  Often times, retailers find themselves searching for information at the last minute; or worse, discover they don’t have the answers they need readily available. Retailers should prepare for these instances by proactively asking themselves the following:

  • Do you have a plan in place for opening new stores?
  • How can you research quickly across multiple locations without spending countless hours that could potentially delay a store opening?
  • What are your forecasted sales and profitability for each location over the next 5, 10 or 15 years?
  • Are you missing rental concessions because you have no way to track co-tenancy clauses?
  • How are you calculating and tracking 13 Period or 4-5-4 sales requirements?
  • Do you have difficulty reconciling Landlord statements with actual charges?
  • What are your options if we miss a critical deadline?  Do you have a system in place to quickly remedy the situation?
  • Are you ready for the next FASB compliance update?
  • Are your lease contracts organized and accessible for quick data compilation?
  • Is your contract data organized in such a way that we can confidently make quick data-driven decisions?
  • How are you currently tracking the budget and P&L for new store upfits?
  • Could you automate our CPI formulations rather than manually calculate?
  • Are you being charged the correct Rent Tax for each location’s store lease?
  • Is there an easier way to reconcile your CAM charges at the end of the year?
  • How can you deliver our real estate intelligence quickly and without error?
