AI-driven Demand Forecasting to Reduce Inventory while Boosting Availability
Proven Benefits with RELEX Solutions
Forecasting and replenishment remain among the most significant challenges for today’s retailers. Yet, these core processes are critical to every retailer’s success — or failure.
Many businesses still rely on manual planning methods, which often lack accuracy and fail to support efficient inventory management. With manual processes, proactive replenishment becomes nearly impossible. If a company can’t predict customer demand, it likely can’t meet it either.
At the same time, inventory is costly, and profit margins are shrinking. Businesses face an increasingly complex supply chain and volatile demand, making it hard to align shifting customer expectations with inconsistent product supply — especially in fresh and seasonal categories.
Being omnichannel has become the norm, and competition is fierce. Whether selling in-store, online, or both, customers expect availability — always. A stockout can frustrate loyal shoppers and damage brand perception. But excess stock is just as problematic, tying up resources and inflating costs.
So how do you ensure products are in the right place, at the right time — while optimizing operational expenses?
A powerful forecasting and replenishment solution empowers retailers to meet demand, improve inventory performance, and stay agile in a rapidly changing environment.
