One of the biggest challenges of the manufacturing and retail industries is the huge inventory pile up of raw materials and finished products. Not only does a substantial amount of capital get blocked in the products but warehouses and storerooms built to store the inventory also add to the cost. Both over-stocking and under-stocking of inventory pose negative financial repercussions to the organization. In short, inventory, if not managed properly may affect the healthy growth of business and new business opportunities.
Why Do Companies Need Effective Inventory Modelling?

Effective inventory modelling can help companies to reduce their operating cost significantly. Enterprises that use traditional methods of inventory management can save only up to 30% on operational cost by maintaining “optimal” inventory. Many of the companies out there still use tools and methods of inventory management that are based on approaches that have shortcomings in today’s highly globalized world; and thus deviate from delivering the optimal inventory management.
