1 Analyze Trends

The first step is to analyze current trends using data analytics . Look at your sales data to identify which products are moving faster or slower than anticipated. Are there seasonal patterns or sudden spikes in demand for certain items? Data analytics can reveal these trends, enabling you to adjust purchasing orders and production schedules accordingly. This proactive approach helps maintain the right inventory balance and prevents stockouts or excess inventory.

While understanding or analyzing trends the following factors can be looked at: 1. Are there any specific SKUs which are showing an abnormal trend? 2. How much variation is there between forecast versus actual? 3. Are there any external factors at play here? 4. Are competitors doing any better in the same category? 5. Which internal factors may have impacted the trend e.g. price, timely availability etc. 6. Are the products obsolete, or have new products gained traction in the category regardless of whether or not they're from the competitors.

Une chose que j'ai trouvée utile est analyse des tendances, car cela permet de réajuster le stock ensuite faire au demande des clients.

Han aumentado mucho las variables para un buen análisis y proyección de stock, desde las clásicas altas y bajas de la temporada pasando por los Ciber y los Black de cada a?o (si estas en Ecommerce) , los feriados que te desacomodan el mes en el a?o contra a?o. Nos obliga a ajustar constantemente nuestros parámetros de base aplicando un criterio dinámico. Los meses de stock cada vez tienen que ser mas ajustados y en mucho depende de nuestra visión de los números según estos eventos . Trabajo en equipo con Mucha concentración y conocimiento del mercado

One example I have seen is customer demand based on change on recommendation. One minute one product is the go to and it could be a long while bedore those sales change or shift. When it does shift the inferior or ignored alternate product takes over and then many shift over as well. Sales are based on movement, pattern, condition, recommendation and setting. I remember when Adidas Yeezys were the rage with many doing everything to get a pair even so far as spending thousands of dollars for their own pair. What shifted is many things: hype died down, many moved on to more affordable brands based on style or new hype, Kanye having ended his partnership with Adidas and market shift.

2 Demand Forecasting

Effective demand forecasting is essential in adjusting inventory levels. Utilize historical sales data, market analysis, and predictive modeling to forecast future demand. This will help you anticipate market changes and adjust your inventory before the shift hits. By understanding what your customers will want next, you can align your inventory levels with expected sales, ensuring you're neither overstocked nor understocked.

By affective forecasting and market analysis, inventory can be managed properly. By looking into the previous sale data, present stock at the floor level and incoming demands like seasonal demand products, their will be less chances of stock out/ over stock/ under stock.

This is the most important part of sales and marketing and business practice. Keeping tabs on the community and consumer demand is integral to knowing what the next big shift is. Ordering enough is the hardest part because the last thing anyone wants to do is order too much or not order enough. New business have it hard because they don't know their customers yet so it is best practice to order enough that fits the average demand customers are seeking. For those with more knowledge on their customers and community it is best practice to order as much as possible for customers that purchase a lot and still have for customers that are casual consumers.

3 Supplier Collaboration

Collaborating with suppliers is key to managing inventory levels amidst market fluctuations. Share your data analytics insights with suppliers to improve the responsiveness of your supply chain. This cooperation can lead to more flexible terms, such as shorter lead times or smaller batch sizes, which can help you adapt more quickly to changing market conditions. A strong supplier relationship is a strategic asset in dynamic markets.

4 Inventory Optimization

Inventory optimization is about having the right amount of stock at the right time. Data analytics can help you determine the optimal stock levels by analyzing sales velocity, lead times, and variability in demand. Implementing inventory optimization models like Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) or Just-In-Time (JIT) inventory can dramatically improve your responsiveness to market shifts by reducing excess inventory and minimizing stockouts.
