Inventory & Demand Planning · Decide

Right stock, right place, right time.

Cash trapped in slow-moving stock while your bestsellers sell out is a false economy hiding in plain sight. We forecast demand at the SKU level and set the rules that keep the right stock in the right place.

  • Less cash tied up in stock
  • Fewer stockouts on bestsellers
  • A dead-stock plan that frees cash

In short

Inventory and Demand Planning stops cash being tied up in the wrong stock and sales being lost to stockouts. Yovance builds SKU-level demand forecasts, reorder and safety-stock rules and a planning dashboard, so you hold the right inventory, free up working capital and stop guessing what to order.

The problem

Inventory is where working capital quietly goes to sleep. Without SKU-level planning, you overstock the wrong things and run out of the right ones. The tell:

"
We have ₹2 Cr sitting in slow-moving stock.
"
We still stock out of our bestsellers every single month.
"
Purchasing runs on gut feel and last month, not real forecasts.

Straight answers

Inventory & Demand Planning FAQ.

It varies by business, but most clients see a meaningful reduction in working capital tied up in slow-moving stock within a quarter, measured against the baseline we agree in week one. We target lower stock and fewer stockouts at the same time.

Yes, wherever possible. The planning dashboard integrates with your existing ERP or POS so forecasts and alerts run on live data.

Mostly, but the same demand-planning approach applies to service businesses through shift and capacity allocation, matching people to where demand actually is.

You can run it yourself, or take the monthly planning retainer where we refresh forecasts, tune the rules and review the plan with you each month.
