This module is capable of ensuring the achievement of important strategical advantages by supporting the analysis through its two modules:
Inventory Control is the component that helps determine the replenishment plan for each node on the logistic chain. Through the simulation of multiple scenarios, the tool allows users to determine the best inventory policy, considering in doing so target service level, stock coverage objectives, and of characteristics and constrains of the logistic chain (e.g. suppliers lead time).
Through the calculation of optimum safety stock by means of a mathematical engine. It allows You to achieve the agreed service level in compliance with forecast curves reliability and financial and logistic parameters.
