Smart Software Enables Responsive Inventory Management in Volatile Markets

    BELMONT, MA, October 01, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Are you in front of your inventory planning, or are you being driven by it? Smart Software, a pioneer of innovative solutions for demand planners, demonstrates how material managers and supply chain executives can take charge of their inventory policies at APICS 2015 Conference & Expo in Las Vegas.

Smart Software will present Service Level Demand Planning (SLDP), a new way to help companies balance inventories and manage the challenge of hard-to-forecast intermittent demand.

SLDP helps inventory leaders take charge of the key policy levers that drives inventory investment. SmartForecasts users can quickly forecast demand, identify where they are over- and under-stocked, and reset reorder points to achieve the optimal inventory mix for thousands of items. Doing so rebalances inventory, reducing inventory and improving service levels.
