Automated Updates
Automate inventory policy updates, allowing for broad-based or detailed adjustments and maintaining time-phased safety stock policies.
Segmentation Evaluation
Evaluate inventory segmentation using metrics like volume, velocity, margin, and other product/market attributes.
System Integration
Seamlessly integrate with common ERP and APS systems to manage dynamic product portfolios across numerous SKUs and locations efficiently.
Automated Inventory Policies
Automated Detection of Intermittent Demand Patterns
Lumpy demand items present challenges for traditional systems like APS and ERP when it comes to accurately setting safety stock targets, particularly for skewed or intermittent demand patterns.
Our Automated Inventory Policies tackle this issue by:
⇒ Identifying whether demand is normal or lumpy
⇒ Delivering more precise safety stock calculations, even for the hardest-to-forecast items
Automated Inventory Strategies for Optimal Stock Levels
Our probabilistic method helps you maintain optimal inventory levels for items with lumpy or intermittent demand. This approach allows you to:
⇒ Avoid overstock while still meeting your service level goals.
Through this method, you can achieve the required service levels for products with uneven demand distribution, ultimately enhancing customer satisfaction and loyalty.
By leveraging statistical analysis, we:
⇒ Minimise uncertainty and guesswork
⇒ Enable better decision-making when handling the complexities of lumpy or intermittent demand
