Why do companies hold inventory? To cover uncertainty in demand
Inventory Means Different Things to Different People Warehouse Manager Finance Director
Why do companies hold too muchinventory? • In a complex supply chain, they don’t have the right tools to accurately predict demand for hundreds and possibly thousands of items, so they go on the safe side, and keep high inventories just in case they get an order • The more accurately they can predict (forecast) demand, the less safety stock they need FORECAST ACCURACY affects SAFETY STOCK levels (The better the accuracy, the lower the safety stock)
Better Demand Forecasters Have… • 15% less inventory • 17% stronger order fulfillment • 35% shorter cash-to-cash cycle times • Fewer stock outs Source: AMR Research, Debra Hofman, Perfect Order = ability to deliver and order to the customer that is complete, accurate, on-time and in perfect condition
