Direct to Store Audits (DTS)

Ensure delivery accuracy and supplier performance with a trusted direct-to-store audit

Contact us

Direct to Store (DTS) audits are an extension of your GFR programme, focusing on suppliers delivering directly to stores, often for short-life chilled products, fresh meals, snacks, or low-turnover items. These deliveries bypass the distribution centre. Like GFR, DTS assumes 100% delivery accuracy and removes the need for in-store checks, speeding shelf replenishment and therefore stock availability. Full audits occur on rotating store samples, with results extrapolated to measure overall delivery accuracy for a set period. This accuracy supports recovering discrepancies between invoiced and actual values. RGIS provides trained mobile auditors, detailed reports, and a dedicated GFR Dashboard for independent validation
