How Demand Data Feeds Inventory & Vice Versa

An effective inventory forecasting system relies heavily on accurate demand predictions, and these two elements constantly refine each other:

Demand Informs Inventory: Predictions about future demand (for transport, goods, etc.) directly inform the inventory forecasting process, helping you determine the exact stock levels needed to meet anticipated demand.
Inventory Refines Demand: Current inventory levels and stock movement data provide crucial feedback to demand prediction models, potentially refining their accuracy. For example, consistently high demand leading to low stock might signal a need to revise demand forecasts upwards.
Optimized Resource Allocation: Accurate inventory forecasts and demand predictions together enable superior resource allocation, ensuring the right amount of stock is available at the right place and time, and that transportation resources are perfectly aligned with demand.
