Inventory Management
For every business organization, inventory is a necessary component of the supply chain process and is required at almost every single stage of operations, whether it is in the form of raw or packaging materials, work-in-process, finished goods, stores or spares.
Optimal Inventory, Optimal Business Results
Inventory management is, therefore, an important aspect of the supply chain process of the modern day businesses.
Companies today need an optimal level of inventory to manage their operations. Any inventory in excess of the optimal level will adversely impact the working capital and will also increase the risk of obsolescence. On the other hand, lower than the optimal level of inventory would result in stock out of the finished goods, and disruptions in the operations, in case of work-in-process or raw materials.
Thus, witnessing the ever increasing significance of optimum inventory for the organizations, it has become all the more important to have expert help in the inventory management processes, and so relying on Research2Systems is a must for you!
Key Challenges Faced By Organizations Today In Inventory Management
The common approach to inventory management is to define a rule of thumb based inventory norm, without considering key influencing factors like the demand patterns and supply lead times. This results in sub optimal inventory norm, which manifests itself in a number of ways:
- Simultaneous stock-outs and excesses
- High level of obsolescence
- Production disruption and re prioritization
- Non availability of packaging material
When it comes to influencing the inventory norms, many factors play a key role. Some of these are:
- Demand
- Demand variability
- Lead Time
- Lead time variability
- Desired service levels
- Replenishment strategy
More often than not, supply chain managers do not have adequate understanding or visibility of these factors.
Shorter product life cycles, supplementing product combinations and demand skew add further complexities to the scenario that needs to be considered for proper inventory planning. Another complexity is the multi-layered structure of supply chains where inventory is held simultaneously at multiple nodes – manufacturer, distributor and retailer.
