Many businesses lose revenue as a result of being out of stock. On the other hand, many suffer from tied-up working capital and wastages as a result of excess stock. These problems are far more common than we think.
The main reason for this situation is high demand and supply fluctuations that can occur in the future. However, most tools and systems are rule-based and they struggle to incorporate futuristic scenarios into the planning process.
Also, planners never seem to have easy access to critical information that they need for inventory planning such as current inventory, pending orders & MOQs. This makes the planning process extremely cumbersome and prone to human error.
