Inventory Analytics

Never run out of top sellers. Stop tying up cash in stock that does not move.

Inventory is where retail cash goes to hide. Too little of what sells means lost revenue. Too much of what does not means tied-up capital and margin erosion. We give you the visibility to get both sides of that equation right.

Questions this answers

The inventory questions your data should already be answering

Which top-selling SKUs are at risk of stocking out in the next 30 days?

How much cash is currently tied up in slow-moving or dead stock?

What is the ideal reorder point for each of my key products?

How does my inventory turnover compare month over month?

Are my supplier lead times creating gaps in stock availability?

Which products should I clear out — and which should I reorder immediately?

Problems we solve

The inventory problems we fix

Best sellers run out — worst sellers pile up

Without real-time velocity tracking, you reorder reactively instead of proactively — and end up overstocked on slow movers while top sellers hit zero.

Capital is trapped in the wrong stock

Overstock ties up working capital that could be invested in growth. Without visibility of slow movers by value, you cannot prioritise clearance decisions.

Stockouts cost you more than you realise

Every stockout on a high-velocity SKU means lost sales, frustrated customers, and potential long-term brand damage — especially during peak periods.

Reorder decisions are based on instinct

Without days-of-supply data and velocity trends, reorder timing is a guess. That guess either means stockouts or expensive emergency orders.

Seasonal demand swings catch you off guard

Seasonal patterns are visible in historical data — but without that analysis, businesses are repeatedly surprised by the same peaks and troughs every year.

Supplier lead time variability is not accounted for

Reorder points that do not factor in supplier lead time variability result in stockouts even when you thought you ordered in time.

KPIs included

What we track — in plain business language

Every metric is chosen because it helps you make faster, smarter decisions about stock before problems become costly.

Inventory turnover
How many times your total stock is sold and replaced in a period — the key measure of whether your inventory is working hard or sitting idle.
Days of supply
How many days of stock remain at current sales velocity for every SKU — your earliest warning system for stockouts on top sellers.
Stockout rate
The percentage of time key SKUs were unavailable — a direct measure of lost revenue and customer experience failures across your range.
Overstock value
The total value of inventory with more than 90 days of supply — so you know exactly how much capital is tied up and which lines need clearance action.
Sell-through rate
What percentage of purchased stock was actually sold in a period — a leading indicator of demand alignment across your range.
Reorder point tracking
Automated alerts when SKUs approach their reorder point — so purchasing decisions happen proactively rather than in a panic after stockout.

What you will gain

Stock the right products — at the right time — every time

Here is what changes when you finally have real visibility into your inventory:

Early warnings on stockout risk — days before you run out, not the morning after
A clear view of every slow-moving SKU — and how much cash is currently trapped in unsold stock
Smarter reorder decisions based on velocity data and lead times — not gut feel or spreadsheet guesswork
Better supplier planning — with data to support lead time negotiations and minimum order discussions
Improved cash flow — because you stop over-buying slow movers and under-buying your fastest-selling products
Monthly inventory insights report — plain-English summary of what needs action and what is performing well
Decisions you can make

From inventory data to smarter operational decisions

Reorder before you run out

Use days-of-supply data to trigger reorders at the right time — based on real velocity, not when someone notices the shelf is empty.

Clear slow movers with purpose

Know exactly which SKUs are tying up capital — and make informed decisions on promotions, markdowns, or liquidation before overstock ages further.

Plan for seasonal demand

Use historical sell-through patterns to plan inventory builds ahead of peak seasons — so you are never caught under-stocked during your most important trading periods.

Improve supplier conversations

Arrive at supplier meetings with data on stockout history and lead time impact — so you can negotiate better terms backed by real evidence, not anecdote.

Protect your best sellers

Set smarter safety stock levels for your highest-velocity SKUs so they stay available even when demand spikes or supplier lead times slip.

Free up working capital

Reduce overstock by making faster, more confident clearance decisions — and redeploy that capital into products that actually turn over profitably.
