Route-to-market, by industry.

Field Blink adapts to the way each category actually sells — from twice-daily milk runs to project-based building materials. Six representative workflows below; the platform runs many more.

Case 01 · FMCG · General Trade

Deep-distribution FMCG across a million outlets

Field reps run daily beats across kirana and general trade. Field Blink schedules the beat, captures the order offline, feeds it into distributor stock norms, and reconciles secondary sales back to the brand within 24 hours.

  • +18% productive calls
  • −22% out-of-stocks
  • T+1 secondary visibility

Case 02 · Beverages · Route-to-Market

Cold-chain beverages with pre-sell and delivery split

Pre-sellers capture orders in the morning; delivery vehicles reroute in the afternoon on the same journey data. Chiller audits and asset tracking run inside the same visit — no second app.

  • 100% chiller audit coverage
  • −31% delivery miles
  • Real-time asset ledger

Case 03 · Dairy · Milk-run distribution

Twice-daily milk runs with reverse logistics

Field Blink handles the AM/PM split, empties reconciliation and outlet-level yield tracking. Distributor claims for damage and returns settle inside the same DMS run.

  • Zero-shrinkage returns
  • AM+PM route optimisation
  • Payout SLA under 7 days

Case 04 · Pharma · Prescription cycle

Medical reps, chemists and prescription tracking

MRs log doctor calls with e-detailing, RCPA and sample distribution. Chemist orders and prescription audit data flow into the same ledger for cycle-based marketing analytics.

  • Cycle-linked RCPA
  • e-detailing on tablet
  • Sample chain-of-custody

Case 05 · Building Materials · Project sales

Project pipelines with dealer and site coverage

Territory managers track sites, architects and dealers on one CRM-grade pipeline. Secondary sales at the dealer roll up to project attribution, so trade marketing knows which sites converted.

  • Project-to-dealer attribution
  • Architect specification tracking
  • Dealer stock norms

Case 06 · Modern Trade · Chain execution

Modern trade execution and planogram compliance

Merchandisers audit planograms, share-of-shelf and pricing with a single photo — AI extracts the data. Chain-wise scorecards go to the KAM the same evening.

  • AI planogram scoring
  • Same-day chain scorecard
  • Price-compliance tracking

Section 05·B — Common questions

SFA & DMS, briefly explained

What is Sales Force Automation (SFA)?

Software that helps field sales reps plan beats, capture orders, log attendance and run in-store surveys — offline-first, on a phone.

What is a Distribution Management System (DMS)?

Software that manages stock and money between a brand, its distributors and retailers — orders, claims, stock norms and ERP sync.

How does Field Blink differ from Bizom, BeatRoute or FieldAssist?

One append-only event ledger under SFA + DMS + AI merchandising. No forks, no glued modules, no five-quarter migration.
