Inventory health monitoring & actions
01
Scans inventory by SKU/location for risk patterns (ageing, slow rotation, short‑dated, delist risk)
02
Quantifies exposure (units/value, time‑to‑expiry, sell‑through needed)
03
Proposes actions based on policy (markdown, promo push, transfer, return, donation)
04
Requests approvals for high‑risk actions (if needed)
05
Executes approved actions in ERP/pricing/promo systems and notifies owners
06
Tracks status and logs evidence + write‑backs
Earlier interventions:
risk spotted days earlier (from ad‑hoc to continuous monitoring)
Write‑offs / waste:
measurable reductions on targeted categories once actions become systematic
Time saved:
less manual hunting in reports + fewer “emergency markdown” loops
Working capital:
fewer “stale” pockets that sit unnoticed
Inventory health register (by risk type, SKU/location, exposure)
Action log (proposed / approved / executed / blocked)
Verified write‑backs (price IDs, promo IDs, transfer IDs, ERP updates)
Value summary (waste avoided, capital released, hours saved)
Rollout requirements
System access
Inventory + sales/rotation feed (ERP/WMS/BI exports are enough to start)
Rules
Action policies (markdown bands, transfer rules, return/donation rules, approval thresholds)
Timeline
Go live in weeks (typically 2–3) for one category/cluster
