Why has SUPERVALU moved to a common code?
Enables our customers and vendors to reference an item by a single identifier across SUPERVALU. Shortens the time required to deliver new Customer Relationship Management and merchandising applications to our customers, vendors and employees. Simplifies existing regional and corporate business processes. Contains cost associated with merchandising activities. Reduces the amount of communication required among SUPERVALU organizations surrounding item maintenance. When did SUPERVALU convert to a Common Code? The Common Code project was completed in 2003. Ongoing corrections continue in the “Code Change” process. Periodic Corrections: (Code Change) As an ongoing process, a periodic conversion of all codes found in error takes place. The process is similar to our original common code transition, but limited only to items that need correction. Not all distribution centers are corrected at the same time. The operating region will determine when and how often the correction process will occur
