The purpose of this guide is to provide our vendor partners with some key insights and basic requirements related to all vendor-provided displays/fixturing/parts & pieces going into our retail stores.

Purpose:

The Visual Merchandise Manager (VMM) application brings together data from disparate teams to provide a cohesive visual interface that retail store employees use to accurately and efficiently set product in the store. VMM supports 5,500 unique employee users. Each Visual Merchandiser is responsible for field direction for an average of five major categories, averaging 780 planogram versions that transition product about 20 times a year in each category.

This guide provides our vendor partners with key insights and basic requirements that Best Buy has related to all Vendor Provided displays/fixturing/parts & pieces going into our retail stores.

All Vendor Requirements are due at -5 week of MKD. If the MKD -5 milestone is not met, the project will be pushed to an alternate transition date.
