Inventory Forecasting for a Retail Chain

Inventory forecasting system for a chain with dozens of branches: sales-history and seasonality analysis per item and branch, automatic supplier order recommendations, alerts before stock-outs or overstock, and a live inventory picture across the chain

The Challenge

A retail chain with dozens of branches ordered inventory on branch managers' gut feeling: empty shelves on hot items and warehouses full of slow movers.

The Solution

An inventory forecasting system connected to the POS and warehouse: per-item, per-branch sales-history and seasonality analysis, automatic supplier order recommendations approved in one click, stock-out and overstock alerts, and a live chain-wide inventory picture with inter-branch transfers.

The Result

Fewer shelf gaps, less cash tied up in the warehouse, and supplier orders based on numbers instead of intuition.
