Features of Inventory Planning Software

Bill of Materials (BOM)

With our inventory planning software, businesses can use the bill of material (BOM) explosion for raw materials orders. With BOM, you can centralize all information regarding raw material procurement. A hierarchical display helps you see the product broken down into individual materials required for each product, helping you better manage the raw materials required, even in kits. Minimize your operating costs by ordering all materials at the right time, saving on the excessive cost of procuring materials short in the market or those available at a high price. It results in a smooth-running production cycle as your raw materials are always available.

Real-time Inventory Analysis

With real-time inventory insights, you can have an updated measure of your available inventory, providing the ability to cater to demand sufficiently. Our inventory planning software prevents stockouts and overstocking, which are often caused by inaccurate inventory. Demand planners get an accurate view of the in-store inventory and warehouse quantities, helping plan your inventory based on projected events. Real-time insights help you make smarter inventory decisions and optimize your safety stock according to available inventory and forecasted demand.

Event Promotions

Major events like holidays, promotional events, or weather changes can affect demand. Our inventory forecasting software forecasts these events in advance and helps you understand inventory levels to cater to this demand. The software ensures you never face a stockout during important events. Depending on the estimated change in demand, you can increase your inventory. You can also determine which location is likely to experience greater demand than others and segregate accordingly.

With our inventory optimization tools, you can manage an accurate safety stock to avoid stockouts while reducing inventory waste due to overstocking. Safety stock optimization lets you recalculate and manage according to the modifications in your supply chain. With a well-stocked safety stock, you can make smarter inventory decisions and save on replenishment costs.
