Inventory & Demand Planning Consulting

Most inventory problems are not buying problems — they are visibility and logic problems. We quantify what your inventory is actually doing, find the working capital trapped in it, and build the planning rules that keep it from coming back.

Signs you need this
Inventory is growing faster than sales.
You stock out of A items while dead stock sits for years.
Min/max was set once and never revisited.
Forecasts get overridden because nobody trusts them.
Nobody can say what your true days of supply is.

What we do

Inventory health analysis

Excess, obsolete and dead stock, aging, turns, days of supply, ABC/XYZ segmentation, and working-capital exposure by class.

Service level & safety stock

Target service levels by segment, statistically defensible safety stock, and the fill-rate consequence of every choice.

Replenishment logic

Min/max, reorder points, order multiples, lead-time handling, and vendor constraints built into rules your team can operate.

Demand planning & forecasting

Forecast method selection, seasonality, new-item and end-of-life handling, and forecast accuracy measurement that means something.

Exception management

Buyers working a short, ranked exception list instead of scrolling a 40,000-row report every morning.

Custom planning systems

When the ERP can’t express how you actually plan, we build the planning layer around it and automate the refresh.

What you get

A quantified opportunity: dollars of excess, dollars of stockout risk, dollars of recoverable working capital.
Segmented policy recommendations you can put into the ERP next month.
A prioritized roadmap, sequenced by payback rather than by effort.

Common questions

Do we need clean data first?

No. Bring us the messy export. Assessing data quality is part of the work, and we have never needed a perfect dataset to find the first big opportunity.

Which ERPs do you work with?

Any system we can get data out of. The analysis lives on the data, not on the platform, so we work alongside your ERP rather than replacing it.

Bring us the messy data.

Whichever practice fits, the first step is the same: one conversation about what is actually broken.
