The Inventory Management & Optimization Extension transforms how organizations maintain optimal inventory levels while aligning stock with actual demand. Rather than managing inventory through periodic cycle counts and batch replenishment processes that lag behind consumption, this extension delivers live visibility into stock positions, replenishment needs, and inventory health across all locations the moment conditions change. Organizations gain complete clarity on inventory levels by location, safety stock positioning, obsolescence risk, and capital allocation efficiency without manual reconciliation or delayed analysis. The ability to monitor inventory continuously, rather than discovering stockouts or excess stock during replenishment cycles, eliminates the traditional inefficiencies that create supply disruptions and excess carrying costs.

Inventory management becomes a precision discipline rather than a perpetual balancing act. Supply chain teams move from reactive responses to stockouts and overstock situations toward continuously optimized inventory positioning, replenishment accuracy improves because algorithms run on live demand and consumption data rather than static forecasts, and capital deployment shifts from locked-in excess stock to optimal, responsive positioning. This is possible because inventory data no longer waits for count cycles or replenishment meetings. Instead, every transaction, every consumption, every receipt flows into a unified inventory intelligence layer the moment it occurs, providing teams with the real-time visibility needed to align inventory with demand and free working capital from excess stock.
