Reliance Consumer Products. The end-to-end digital platform — Pre-Sales, Van Sales, Primary DMS, CTS (Cooler Tracking), Pricing & Promotions, SFA — built and run by Fynd across five parallel PODs spanning Beverage and Non-Beverage.
Two-track stance. Track 1 · take ownership of the existing two-year-old stack and ship production deployments every cycle to close gaps and harden data quality. Track 2 · architect a dedicated, RCPL-owned, AI-native FMCG OS as the long-term home.
Each POD owns a slice of the route-to-market — Pre-Sales and Van Sales for the Beverage business; Multi-Segment Distributor Mapping, CSO empowerment, and Beat Management for the broader CSO field force; CTS for cooler-asset deployment; Primary DMS for distributor ordering; Pricing & Promotions for the full margin-and-scheme stack.

A no-code utility for these manual script runs is in build · 2–3 week target.
Proposed to the Reliance APEX Board on 01-May-2026. RCPL's distribution platform should not be a configured commercial DMS. It should be an AI-first, RCPL-owned operating system — purpose-built for the scale, segment-mix, and route-to-market complexity that no off-the-shelf product covers end-to-end. Three principles: AI at the core (not bolted on); hyper-personalised down to the call; plug-in anything, plug into anything.
An AI-generated task and incentive engine that plugs into the Saarthi SFA app. Every morning, every sales rep gets a hyper-personalised plan — for each store, for each call — with instant reward points the moment a task is completed.
| Capability | What it does | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Hyper-personalised target | ML-optimised target for each store, each call — not a flat beat-level number | Right target, right place |
| Hyper-personalised task | Execution tasks per store, per visit — focus SKUs, visibility, scheme push, recovery | Sharper field execution |
| Task-based incentive | Instant reward points on task completion — gamified, transparent, daily | Drives the right action, every call |
| Sales uplift | Closed-loop measurement of task → action → outcome at the store level | 3–8% sales uplift per store |
| Intelligent order prediction | One-click ready order — ML predicts the basket the rep should propose at this store today | AOV up 8–12% |
| Intelligent engagement | Personalised nudges to rep and retailer — timed, contextual, action-oriented | 30–50% higher engagement; 3–5% more transactions |
Saarthi evolves from a transaction app to a decision app. Four sub-layers stitched into the AI layer above.
The Distributor Management System becomes an AI-augmented automation system — to remove the age-old inefficiencies of traditional DMS (manual operators, stockouts, broken credit cycles, slow loadouts) and put intelligence at the centre.
Retailers transact directly through a multi-channel eB2B layer (WhatsApp + PWA + native app), with intelligence pushed to the surface.
Once the AI-native distribution platform is in steady state, the RCPL OS extends across the rest of the FMCG value chain — same data backbone, same AI layer, same plug-in fabric — applied to Marketing (brand, campaign, retailer loyalty, consumer activation), Manufacturing (plant-to-warehouse visibility, batch & quality, demand-linked production planning) and Supply Chain (S&OP, secondary logistics, inventory, demand sensing).
