Inventory management is a critical function within the operational architecture of companies operating in industries such as manufacturing, distribution, and retail. It has a direct impact on profitability, operational cash flow, and the continuity of the supply chain. Broadly speaking, this process involves quantitative and value-based control of stock items, aiming to maintain constant alignment between availability levels and demand dynamics, with the goal of minimizing risks associated with both overstocking and stockouts.
