Book excerpt: Inventory management is one of the most important and complicated subject in supply chain management, as management of inventory takes into consideration both external customers in both the upstream and the downstream, and the internal customer. The ability to get inventory right provides a lot of advantages to supply chain managers as thts foster the growth of the organization in terms of sales, liquidity of the organization, and increase in organizational Investment. Many at time management loses foresight on the activities of the planning of inventory which may result in losses to the organization. These losses may be in the form of loss of sales due to stockout, tying up of capital due to excessive inventory, obsolescence due to excessive stocking, pilfering, and damage of stock. Inventory managers can only be effective if planning of inventory is properly carried out, which requires adequate training both theory and on the job training.

Book INVENTORY MANAGEMENT

Download or read book INVENTORY MANAGEMENT written by Prabhu TL and published by NestFame Creations Pvt Ltd.. This book was released on with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inventory management aids businesses in determining which goods to order and when to order it. It keeps track of merchandise from purchase to sale. The practise monitors and reacts to trends to guarantee that there is always enough stock to satisfy client orders and that shortages are detected early. Inventory becomes revenue if it is sold. Inventory ties up cash before it sells, despite the fact that it is reported as an asset on the balance sheet. As a result, having too much inventory costs money and lowers cash flow. Inventory turnover is one indicator of good inventory management. Inventory turnover is an accounting metric that shows how frequently stock is sold over time. A company does not want to have more inventory than it can sell. Deadstock, or unsold inventory, can result from low inventory turnover. What Is the Importance of Inventory Management? Inventory management is critical to a business's success since it ensures that there is never too much or too little goods on hand, reducing the danger of stockouts and erroneous records. Inventory tracking is required by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act for public corporations. To demonstrate compliance, businesses must document their management practises. Inventory Management's Advantages Inventory management has two key advantages: it assures that you can fulfil incoming or open orders and it increases earnings. Inventory control also entails: Saves Money: Knowing stock trends allows you to know how much and where you have anything in stock, allowing you to make better use of what you have. This also allows you to hold less stock at each location (store, warehouse), as you can fulfil orders from anywhere – all of this lowers inventory costs and reduces the quantity of product that goes unsold before it becomes obsolete. Improves Cash Flow: Proper inventory management allows you to spend money on inventory that sells, allowing cash to flow freely throughout the company. Customers are satisfied: ensuring that customers obtain the things they desire without having to wait is an important part of building loyal customers.

Book Inventory Control

Download or read book Inventory Control written by Dieter Bartmann and published by Springer. This book was released on 1992-10-12 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experts in operations research and developers of software application systems have been treading separate paths for many years. It is urgently necessary to reset this course so that the demanding requirements of variousCIM concepts can be realized. This is specially relevant for computer-based stock management. Both authors, with a number of years of practical experience behind them, have written this book with this objective in mind. The book shows how modern inventory control can be rationally structured with the help of OR. Two aspects are given importance:1) the necessary mathematical derivations are completely explained in detail so that the reader will be able to optimally handle a given situation with the help of the methods learned in this book, and 2) aside from the models, strong emphasis is given on numerical methods. Suitable algorithms are thoroughly explained for the more important cases.

Book Wholesale Warehouse Inventory Control with Statistical Demand Information

Download or read book Wholesale Warehouse Inventory Control with Statistical Demand Information written by Carl R. Schultz and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inventory managers often encounter erratic demand histories which are difficult to model. For example, periods of no demand are frequently observed, and when demand is positive, it tends to be quite large. Furthermore, periods of high demand are often followed by several periods of no demand. One possible explanation for this sporadic and correlated demand behavior is that demand originates from separate facilities which employ (s, S) replenishment policies. Each period's demand, therefore, is the sum of the replenishment order quantities received from inventory control facilities. The management at a multi-item inventory system at the warehouse level, in which demand is comprised at the aggregated replenishment orders from lower-echelon inventory control facilities, was investigated by Schultz 1979. Under the assumption that the warehouse observes only the aggregated replenishment orders, Schultz adapts an approximately optimal (s, S) policy rule (The Power Approximation of Ehrhardt 1976, originally designed for independent and identically distributed demands, for use in a warehouse demand environment. The demand requirements of this new policy rule, referred to as the Correlation-Adjusted Power Approximation, are the mean, variance, and variance over one lead time of demand. For the situation in which these demand parameters are known exactly, Schultz empirically demonstrates that the operating characteristics of the policy rule are close to the operating characteristics of simulation-derived estimates of optimal (s, S) policies for a wide range of parameter settings.
