The challenge

What was getting in the way.

Rapid growth had outpaced the retailer's manual spreadsheets, causing stockouts, missed sales and procurement inefficiencies.

Judgement-based stock management

Inventory decisions relied on individual judgement, not data.

Poor fill rates

Low fill rates at stores and warehouses caused stockouts and missed sales.

No tracking or analysis

There was no system to track demand and stock, spot trends or anticipate needs.

The solution

What Anamind put in place.

Anamind replaced the spreadsheets with an automated inventory management approach.

Automated inventory management
