7. Action Items & Recommendations
-
Monitor SKUs with excess inventory: For Categories C and D, promotions or markdowns should be implemented to prevent long-term overstock.
-
Improve stock forecasting: Fine-tune procurement for Category B, which is moving quickly, to avoid future stock-outs.
-
Vendor management: Follow up with suppliers for Category D to address delayed shipments and mitigate future risks.
8. Conclusion
This week showed promising improvements in stock turnover and fewer stock-outs. However, some overstock risks and vendor delays in Category C and D need proactive management. Overall, the inventory system is performing well, with continuous monitoring in place to optimize stock levels and minimize inefficiencies.
