New York, NY – September 28, 2026 – PSignite, the company behind CPGvision, AI-driven trade and revenue management software for the consumer goods industry, today announced that its platform has earned six Best-in-Class Category Distinctions in the Promotion Optimization Institute's (POI) 2026 Consumer Goods Enterprise Planning and Retail Execution Vendor Panorama.
The distinctions span the full commercial planning cycle, from setting the annual operating plan and headquarter strategy through account execution, deductions resolution, and post-event analysis. Together, they reflect CPGvision's role as a single platform where sales, finance, and supply teams plan and act on the same numbers.
"Trade is one of the biggest lines on a CPG P&L, and our clients need to plan it, fund it, and settle it without leaking margin along the way," said Jon Flaherty, CEO of PSignite. "Being recognized in six categories tells us our investment in CPGvision is showing up where clients feel it most: more efficient plans, faster deduction resolution, and one version of the truth that every function can work from."
PSignite earned Best-in-Class Distinctions in the following six categories for 2026:
Annual Operating Plan (AOP): The annual operating plan sets volume, revenue, and trade targets for the year through top-down and bottom-up planning in one flow, then allocates those targets into the TPM system and publishes them for tracking. It is the financial anchor every downstream commercial plan is measured against. Best-in-class stays easy to use and fast even at granular levels, builds cross-functional collaboration into the process, carries guardrails from the AOP into account planning, and keeps the plan connected to the live forecast so it can be reworked and redeployed quickly as the business changes rather than freezing as a static budget.
Headquarter Planning: Headquarters sets market share, positioning, spend, and P&L goals, allocates retailer trade rates and spend, and builds the go-to-market sales-planning strategy within guardrails. This is where strategy becomes executable direction for account teams. Best-in-class optimizes trade rates and spend, blends traditional trade with digital and shopper marketing investment, sets and manages guardrails that carry into account planning, and expresses strategy as clear, executable guidance for sales.
Internal Collaboration: Cross-functional engagement on shared enterprise insight, so key account managers, sales leaders, finance, supply, and the field plan and execute from one version of the truth. Buy-in across functions is what turns a plan into performance. Best-in-class embeds communication directly in the platform (including tools such as Microsoft Teams and Slack), drives adoption across roles, gives every role a 360-degree customer view, and delivers the same collaboration experience across in-store and virtual visits.
TPMx Analytics, Dashboarding & Reporting: Out-of-the-box TPM dashboards and reporting that turn trade data into decisions quickly, with deep drill-down from summary to detail. Planners, finance, and leadership need to see what is working and act before money is spent. Best-in-class supports cross-functional business unit profiles and flexible hierarchies, multi-distributor net pricing scenarios, detailed ROI and what-if analysis, spend and overspend, accruals, deductions, and account P&Ls, visibility to overlapping deals and forward buy, and alerts that direct users to areas requiring action, all delivered with graphical innovation.
TPMx Deductions Management: A streamlined, simple deductions experience that shows exposure through aging views (30, 60, 90, and 180 days) with line-item detail. Deductions are where unmanaged trade leaks margin. Best-in-class auto-pulls back-up documentation from retailer and manufacturer portals, automatically matches claims to planned promotions using OCR and related technology, matches third-party and wholesaler distributor data, and lets each organization configure views around how it clears deductions.
TPMx for Tier 2 & 3 / International: Solid, just-enough trade promotion management delivered through a templatized process and streamlined configuration for Tier 2 and 3 organizations and Tier 1 international geographies. Smaller organizations need core TPM discipline without the cost and time of an enterprise program. Best-in-class deploys fast through templates, keeps the experience simple without sacrificing core TPM capability, and serves a client base concentrated in the tier it targets.
