Ankeny, IA — (October 22, 2025) — The National Association of Sporting Goods Wholesalers (NASGW) proudly announced the official launch of SCOPE 2.0 during the 2025 NASGW Expo and Annual Meeting in Grapevine, Texas. The newly enhanced SCOPE platform delivers more powerful analytics, optimized dashboards, and expanded product coverage — all designed to give shooting sports businesses deeper insight and faster, more actionable intelligence.
SCOPE 2.0 represents a major milestone in NASGW’s ongoing investment in industry data and technology. The upgrade builds upon the proven success of the SCOPE DLX (Distributor-Level Data Exchange) and SCOPE CLX (Retail Point-of-Sale Data Exchange) systems, integrating new tools, improved data feeds, and expanded reporting capabilities.
“Our goal with SCOPE 2.0 was simple — to make the industry’s best data platform even better,” said Kenyon Gleason, NASGW President. “We listened to our members through our Partner+ meetings, refined the tools they rely on most, and introduced smarter ways to turn data into decisions.”
Key Features of SCOPE 2.0
-
Enhanced Dashboards: Faster, more intuitive reporting with new visualization tools for easier trend analysis.
-
Improved Data Feeds: Streamlined data ingestion from distributors and POS systems for greater accuracy and timeliness.
-
Integrated Resources Hub: A centralized section featuring the latest reports, FAQs, and access to Partner+ meetings for one-on-one data guidance.
- Expanded Product Categories: Additional product categories are in the works for both DLX and CLX platforms including suppressors and accessories.
- COMING SOON: Predictive Analytics: New forward-looking insights to help identify market shifts before they happen.
Both SCOPE DLX and SCOPE CLX continue to serve as the backbone of the SCOPE ecosystem — providing a comprehensive view of shipments, inventory, and retail sales across the shooting sports industry. Together, they give manufacturers, distributors, and retailers the unbiased insights they need to plan with confidence.
“SCOPE 2.0 puts the power of data directly in the hands of our members,” said Tom Hopper, NASGW’s Director of Data Programs. “With enhanced dashboards, broader product coverage, and more consistent data alignment, SCOPE is now the most complete picture of the shooting sports marketplace available anywhere.”
