Automatically Detect Intermittent Demand Patterns
In the realm of inventory management, lumpy demand items present a unique challenge when it comes to determining safety stock targets while aiming to meet desired service levels. Traditional technologies like APS and ERP systems often struggle to address the needs of products with skewed distribution and the requirement for higher service levels, as they do not factor in the uncertainty associated with intermittent demand patterns. Logility's Automated Inventory Policies offer a revolutionary solution by automatically detecting whether a demand pattern is normally distributed or intermittent, low, and lumpy. This innovative approach enables businesses to calculate more precise safety stock targets even for the most challenging-to-forecast items.
Conquer Intermittent Demand with Probabilistic Inventory Planning
Logility's blog delves into the concept of Probabilistic Inventory Planning as an advanced inventory management methodology that holds significant value for businesses looking to enhance their bottom line. By leveraging probabilistic approaches through Automated Inventory Policies, organizations can effectively manage inventory for lumpy or intermittent demand items. This strategy ensures that businesses maintain the optimal level of inventory, preventing overstocking while still meeting service level targets. Through statistical analysis, companies can make informed decisions that reduce the uncertainty and guesswork commonly associated with managing products with skewed distribution or intermittent demand patterns.
Automated Inventory Policies Ensure Optimum Stocking Levels
Logility's probabilistic approach to inventory management guarantees that businesses retain the right balance of inventory for items with lumpy or intermittent demand. By preventing overstocking and aligning stocking levels with service level targets, companies can enhance customer satisfaction and loyalty. The data-driven insights provided by Logility's Automated Inventory Policies empower organizations to make well-informed decisions that mitigate the challenges associated with managing products with unique demand patterns.
