Nova: central management of prices, products and stock in a network
Centralized Management of Prices, Products, and Inventory Across a Network of Stores and Partners
The software infrastructure that gave Nova unified control over commercial information across the entire network
Nova operates in a demanding retail environment, where many stores and partners need immediate access to accurate, consistent, and always up-to-date information. In a large sales network, consistency is not merely a matter of organization. It is a critical factor for pricing, product availability, customer service, and centralized control of sales policy.
To meet these needs, Qorect designed and implemented a centralized management infrastructure that enables Nova to control and distribute commercial information throughout its network of stores and partners. The solution supports the centralized management of products, services, prices, pricing policies, availability, and inventory, with automatic updates to the stores’ point-of-sale systems.
The challenge
In an extensive network of stores and partners, every point of sale must operate with the same, accurate, and up-to-date information. For Nova, this meant that every store and partner had to know exactly which products and services were available, what prices were currently in effect, which sales and pricing policies should be applied, what inventory was available locally and centrally, which products can be ordered, and how the sales plan can be updated without manual processes.
The main challenge was to avoid discrepancies between points of sale, pricing errors, and delays in updating information across the network; as a partner network grows larger, it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain a unified and consistent sales operation without the appropriate technological infrastructure.
The needs
Nova needed a centralized solution that would serve as a single point of control for the commercial information across its entire network. The need was not limited to simply sending data to stores, but to creating a stable, reliable, and fully controlled software mechanism that would ensure that every point of sale operates with the same, accurate, and approved data, regardless of its geographic location or size.
To achieve this, the company needed centralized management of products and services, uniform application of prices and commercial policies, real-time updates to store point-of-sale systems, a better overview of inventory at both the local and central levels, a reduction in manual processes, fewer operational errors, and greater control by central management. Simply put, Nova needed a technological infrastructure that would make its retail network more organized, more controlled, and more effectively connected.
The solution
Qorect designed and implemented a centralized management platform through which Nova can organize, monitor, and distribute critical commercial information across its entire network of stores and partners. The solution supports the centralized management of products, services, prices, pricing policies, availability, store inventory, the company’s central inventory, and ordering capabilities, ensuring that all data comes from a single, reliable source.
Each store or partner automatically receives the necessary updates in their point-of-sale system, ensuring they always operate with the most recent and approved information. In this way, Nova maintains a uniform merchandising policy across the entire network, significantly reduces manual interventions and local updates, minimizes inconsistencies among points of sale, and strengthens central control over merchandising operations.

Central Product and Service Management
Through this implementation, Nova gained the ability to centrally manage all information related to its products and services, including product descriptions, available services, active promotional offers, product or service bundles, distribution rules, categorization, and any other common information that must be available across the entire network. In this way, all points of sale operate on a unified and controlled commercial basis, ensuring consistency in information and significantly reducing the risk of discrepancies in information between stores and partners.

Automatic Updates to Prices and Pricing Policies
One of the most important aspects of the implementation was the automatic updating of prices and pricing policies in effect at any given time, ensuring that every store and partner has immediate access to accurate and approved commercial information without the need for manual entries or local updates. This feature allows Nova to apply uniform prices across the entire network, minimize pricing errors, immediately implement new commercial policies, reduce the time required to update point-of-sale systems, and maintain tighter control from central management. At the same time, it ensures that every partner operates based on current data, enhancing the network’s reliability and significantly reducing discrepancies in day-to-day commercial operations.

Inventory Management at the Store and Headquarters
The solution supports inventory tracking at both the store and corporate levels, providing each point of sale with a complete picture of product availability. This allows stores and partners to know which products are available locally, which are available in the company’s central inventory, which can be ordered, and what the actual availability status is at the time of customer service. This capability significantly improves service quality, as it allows needs to be met even when a product is not immediately available at a specific store but can be fulfilled through the central warehouse. In this way, information becomes more immediate, more reliable, and more actionable at the operational level.

Consistent Information Across the Entire Network
Thanks to the central infrastructure implemented by Qorect, Nova’s network can operate with a common business logic and unified information, regardless of the point of sale or partner. The automatic updating of each store’s commercial program ensures that partners do not need to manually update prices, products, or commercial policies, while every change is distributed immediately and consistently throughout the entire network. At the same time, it ensures that pricing policies are correctly applied, information remains consistent, controlled, and up-to-date, and store staff can serve customers with greater accuracy and reliability. The result is a more organized and efficient operation, with less reliance on local procedures, fewer operational errors, and greater consistency across the entire retail network.
The Business Result
Upon completion of the implementation, Nova gained a centralized and reliable business intelligence infrastructure, designed to effectively support the needs of a large network of stores and partners. The solution offers centralized management of products and services, uniform application of prices and pricing policies, as well as automatic updates to promotional programs at all points of sale, ensuring that every partner operates with the same, accurate, and up-to-date data.
At the same time, the infrastructure helps significantly reduce manual processes and pricing errors, while providing an immediate view of inventory at both the store and corporate levels. As a result, retail locations can serve customers more effectively, even when a product is not available locally but can be fulfilled from central inventory or via order.
The value of the solution is not limited to the technical automation of processes. It lies primarily in Nova’s ability to operate with greater accuracy, speed, consistency, and commercial control across a complex and extensive network of partners and stores, while maintaining a unified commercial policy and a high level of service at every point of sale.
