Inventory Optimisation

38 Views

The requirements I have is to do an assessment on the capability of inventory management solution and particularly around stock optimisation. I was wondering if any of you had ever looked at stock optimisation within SAP and how you rated the standard offering?

Some of the key requirements are:

Optimisation of stock (increase/decrease min/max levels). Appropriate recommendations on optimal min/max levels, to meet business requirements. This is not necessarily based on historical analysis but also future demand.

Criticality analysis. Min/max levels based on business criticality

Management of possibly obsolete. Identify stock that hasn't moved for a period of time and may be outdated or no longer required

Sharing items across plants. Visibility at BU level of available inventory, particularly surplus stock

Are these requirements possible and to what extent without going to an EIO tool like Smartop?

Thanks
