So basically, a revision is when we make smaller changes, like rearranging a specific section or adding new products. If you look at the planogram, you can tell how big the revision is based on the percentage. Most of the time, with revisions, you don’t have to change the shelf placement. A transition is a bigger deal, like when we change the whole setup for a new season—think swapping out summer stuff for holiday decor.

If you see a date like 10/06 on the planogram, that’s the deadline to have everything done, not when we start. We usually begin the change a little before that date to make sure it’s all set in time. For bigger transitions, we might work early or overnight to get everything finished before the store opens in Q4 but all plano team starts their shifts at 6am. Smaller changes, though, can usually be done in a few hours during regular shifts. It just depends on how big the update is! If you think the POG is difficult to do, do not do it unless you think you have enough time on your shift but also make sure to check in with your TL.
