In RakuOps, a check answered No, a reading outside its limits, or a photo that does not match your best store's opens a fix for that store, with an owner and a due date.

Why chains run this check

A planogram is only as good as the stores that follow it. Without a check, each store drifts: a bay set the old way, last month's posters still up, a hero product on the bottom shelf.

This check counts what can be counted (gaps, price mismatches) and photographs what cannot, so you can compare stores side by side instead of trusting "all fine".

How it runs at every store

  1. One standard. Send this checklist to every store, on a schedule, to whoever is on shift.
  2. Evidence back. Photos, readings and answers come back from the phone, timestamped and named.
  3. Problems become fixes. Anything that fails opens a fix for that store, due in hours, not at the next visit.
  4. Best against worst. The scorecard ranks your stores on it and shows which check the worst store misses.

Frequently asked questions

Is this template free?

Yes. Print it, save it as a PDF, or tick it off on this page. To run it at every store, with photos, readings that open a fix when they are out of range, and a scorecard that ranks your stores, use it in RakuOps. The free plan covers one store, with unlimited users.

How often should a store check its planogram?

Weekly is enough for most chains, plus once on the day any layout or promotion changes. The day-of-change check matters most, because that is when stores fall out of step.

Why count gaps instead of ticking "shelves full"?

A count lets you compare stores and see a store getting worse over weeks. A tick only tells you someone thought it was fine.
