Replenishment

Leading retailers rely on their suppliers to help manage the replenishment process at both distribution centers and stores. Retailers provide sales, inventory and retail forecast data, but making use of this information can be a challenge due to the complexity of the forecasting process and the number of products and locations. Traditional approaches have required suppliers to manually sort through data to identify areas needing attention.

TrueDemand automates this time consuming process. Analysts receive daily notifications about replenishment issues as well as corrective action recommendations. The impact of those recommendations are tracked for easy reporting back to retailers. In addition, TrueDemand can recommend changes to forecast variables as well as reorder points and safety stock levels. Incorporating demand intelligence into an intuitive, workflow-based solution helps standardize a replenishment management process across categories and even across retail trading partners. Such standardization enables cross-category and cross-account level sales performance reporting and metrics.

Use TrueDemand to empower your replenishment analysts, maximize your retailer relationship, rapidly respond to market demand and make sales execution a sustainable competitive advantage.
