How can I improve my supply chain? (Strategy)

Is your marketing being sabotaged by poor inventory planning?

#1 on our list of logistics best practices is:

 1. Inventory is planned according to the best information available from forecasts of known accuracy and market information from suppliers, marketing, the sales force and customer feedback.

There is no more important activity in the whole of supply chain than inventory planning.  Correctly determining when and how much stock should be procured will impact every other supply chain activity and affect the value an organisation provides both in cost and service delivery to the market.
