The Challenge
The opportunity is to eliminate orders delayed for an item held in another branch, dead stock ageing on branch shelves, and stock levels set by instinct rather than by demand. The proposed workflow is source-linked, but the current operating baseline and financial value remain illustrative until validated with the client.
How It Works
- Reads consumption history, open orders, branch activity and supplier lead times.
- Forecasts demand per item per branch and sets reorder and transfer points.
- Recommends transfers, flags dead stock and raises purchase orders early.
What It Removes
- Orders delayed for an item held in another branch
- Dead stock ageing on branch shelves
- Stock levels set by instinct rather than by demand
