Chainalytics’ Sales, Inventory, and Operations Planning services help you better understand the demand for your products and services, consider the associated underlying uncertainty, and manage your replenishment and profitability strategies. By uncovering the underlying drivers of demand and supply variability that lie within your supply chain, we help you balance customer service requirements, working capital investment, customer and product portfolios, and profitability. This service will help you achieve maximum performance from your current inventory investments and network capacity as well as plan for future growth.
Chainalytics’ Sales, Inventory, and Operations Planning services can improve your supply chain performance by effectively answering these questions:
- How does our demand planning process compare to best-in-class?
- Which customers should we focus on serving? What products should we focus on selling? Are our profitable customers purchasing unprofitable products?
- Is our forecast accuracy and bias reasonable compared to competitors and peer companies?
- Are we accurately representing demand variability in our inventory planning process?
- What is the optimum service level for each of my finished goods within each channel, given my network capacity, lead times, costs, margins, and backorder penalties?
