Audit Scope and Endcap Identification

Verify the endcap is installed in the assigned aisle or promotional location for winter preparedness products.
Confirm the display is being reviewed during the planned winter setup or reset period.
Verify the current approved planogram, reset guide, or store directive is available to compare against the display.
Confirm the endcap signage and product mix clearly communicate the winter-prep purpose to customers.

Product Assortment and Stock Levels

Verify the display includes the intended ice melt products and sizes for the season.
Assess whether the endcap has sufficient facings and backstock replenishment to avoid empty spaces.
Confirm the endcap contains only approved winter-preparedness merchandise and no unrelated seasonal or clearance items.
Verify heavy bags or containers of ice melt are placed on lower shelves or floor positions to reduce drop risk.
Record the estimated number of additional cases or units available to refill the endcap.

Signage, Pricing, and Promotional Execution

Check that the main header or seasonal sign is present, legible, and positioned for customer visibility.
Verify each displayed SKU has a matching price label and that the posted price matches the current system price.
Confirm any promotional callouts, discounts, or bundle messages are current and approved.
Inspect signs for tears, fading, curling, tape residue, or other visible damage.
Record any mismatched, missing, or unreadable price labels requiring correction.

Display Safety and Housekeeping

Verify the endcap does not block walking paths, adjacent product access, or emergency egress routes.
Check that stacked items, hooks, bins, and shelves are secure and not at risk of collapse or tip-over.
Inspect for loose packaging, shrink wrap, spills, salt residue, or other housekeeping issues.
Verify all products are intact and that any compromised packaging has been removed from the sales floor.
Confirm freight equipment has been removed from the shopping area after setup.

Execution Quality and Corrective Actions

Rate the overall appearance, organization, and readiness of the winter endcap.
List any non-conformances found during the audit and note the owner and due date for correction.
Attach photos showing the overall display and any issues that require follow-up.
Add any additional observations, trends, or store-specific comments relevant to the winter setup audit.
