Dynamic Forecast Model Selection and Demand
Sensing that tests for plausibility and accuracy
to provide an objective demand plan baseline and
eliminate as much human bias as possible.
Collaboration with Merchandising to comply with
store planograms and meet shelf/display stock
requirements while fine-tuning store policies by
recommending inventory face swaps within a shelf,
optimal back-room stocking between deliveries, and
total shelf stock.
Dynamic Analysis of Supply and Demand for every
SKUL (SKU by Location) across the enterprise,
from DCs to stores, that considers all error sources
including the variability in supply and variance from
plan, to ensure precise service level attainment with
greater confidence dependencies and constraints.
Profit-Optimized Inventory Policies including
replenishment order sizing and safety stock are
calculated at the location and store level, considering
total cost, delivery cycles, comprehensive error,
optimal availability levels given margin and basket
pull-through, and all dependencies and substitutes.
Leading Indicator, Extrinsic Variable, and Viability
Analysis so that forecasts sense changes in demand
driven by store-level POS trends, local promotions, and
product placement.
Multi-Echelon Inventory Optimization (MEIO)
algorithms that determine the profit and service
level optimum source for each replenishment from
a parent location, primary vendor, surplus location,
alternate vendor, or substitute. Purchase constraints,

redistribution from another location, optimally meeting vendor minimums
and rebate thresholds, cross-docking directly to the POS location,
