Inventory management metrics to handle demand volatility

Navigating the global supply chain is rocky with demand volatility amplified by new tariffs and ongoing inflation. Businesses find themselves caught in a precarious balance, needing to maintain adequate inventory to meet customer demands while simultaneously operating in a demand-driven manner to minimize the burden of carrying excess stock. In this volatile landscape, relying on gut instinct is a recipe for disaster. Instead, a data-driven approach, centered on closely monitored inventory metrics, becomes the essential safeguard for managing uncertainty.
