Meet the Experts
Inventory optimization remains a key focus area for SAPinsiders, as highlighted in our most recent research report, Inventory Optimization and Management. When organizations undertake an inventory optimization initiative, they typically leverage conventional multi-echelon inventory optimization tools that leverages inventory placement in conjunction with integer programming and statistical methods to determine how much inventory to hold and where. A network model helps determine which products need to be placed in an stocking location, based on the customer demand historical data for the region. However, algorithms like association-rule mining can further help fine tune these analytical methods in the logistics world.
