Even small variances in inventory can have big repercussions in your supply chain. Caught with too little and you have rush charges, express delivery fees and unhappy customers. Order too much and you increase costs and risk write-offs for obsolete or expired goods. Optimising inventory across all channels ensures that your goods are where they’re needed—not forgotten in a warehouse or reserved for stores while your Internet customers receive out-of-stock messages.

You can spend a lot of time managing safety stock and creating orders to replenish those goods. Sometimes you just can’t keep up with the demand on a hot item and other times you’re flooded with costly overstock. Inventory Optimisation can save you time and money by analysing your business to create a customized, automated replenishment strategy. We’ll help you determine how you can most profitably buy the right inventory—at the optimum time.

Inventory Optimisation from Manhattan Associates enables you to set channel-specific service levels so that Internet, call centre and store orders can each be filled from the sources and at the times you determine. In addition, with this powerful suite, you can see inventory across your entire network no matter how many channels, products or outlets you have.

• Multi-Echelon
