Overview
A regional retail chain with 12 locations struggled with manual inventory tracking across stores. Stock discrepancies led to frequent stock-outs of popular items while other products sat unsold. Store managers spent hours weekly on inventory counts and manual reorder requests.
Challenges
- •No real-time visibility into inventory levels across locations
- •Manual data entry causing frequent errors and discrepancies
- •Inability to transfer stock between locations efficiently
- •Lost sales due to stock-outs of popular items
- •Excess inventory tying up capital and storage space
Solution
We developed a cloud-based inventory management system with real-time synchronization across all locations. The system integrated with their existing POS terminals and provided:
- •Real-time inventory tracking with automatic updates from POS systems
- •Automated reordering based on configurable thresholds and sales velocity
- •Cross-location transfer requests and tracking
- •Mobile app for store managers to conduct quick inventory checks
- •Analytics dashboard showing trends, forecasts, and optimization opportunities
Results
Operational Improvements
- ✓87% reduction in stock-outs of popular items
- ✓$250K annual savings from reduced excess inventory
- ✓15 hours per week saved on manual inventory management
- ✓99.2% inventory accuracy across all locations
