InStock Inventory Planner™ is a weekly forecasting tool that enables participants to easily set and
track top line inventory levels by program or category. It is a perfect solution for managers who
need a method to monitor the weekly flow of product but do not need to drill to item or location detail.
Both managers and their Inventory teams will find this product can eliminate large mistakes by
identifying where inventory dollars are most needed as well as highlight excessive inventory
levels before they drag down total program performance.

Completing an inventory plan before the season means retailers and suppliers can know that sufficient product to meet budgeted sales will be available. Collaborative planning processes leverage the experience and knowledge of both retailer and supplier leading to sales growth and improved inventory efficiencies.

Users can easily and continually update the plan in season as actual weekly results are known. Unexpected market trends, margin pressures, weather events, etc. that can affect need are easily factored in to ensure shipping and replenishment match the real world needs of any program.

As with many of our products, our goal is to simplify the process so your team can focus on the result. Everything we do is focused solely on sales and profits. Inventory Planner™ can be an important piece of your retail programs and will allow your team to focus on sales and customer service.
