Description

Demand Planning and Inventory Optimization

Retailers struggle to identify the optimal inventory to support demand, due to lack of data visibility, sales volatility, complex supply-chains, among other factors. Most retailers attempt to solve this with detailed spreadsheets, aggregating data from many sources and manipulating it with complex calculations. However, aside from a time-consuming and error-prone process, spreadsheets cannot incorporate the complex dynamics around demand planning, inventory optimization and supply-chain management, especially in the modern, connected, global retail.

Based on real-time sales, inventory and supply chain data, Flieber’s SaaS platform leverages AI to provide demand forecasting, inventory replenishment recommendations, purchase order management, supply chain monitoring, sales rebalancing, among other features to help modern retailers gain full control over their data and make more accurate decisions in a fraction of the time.

FEATURES

Demand Planning

Flieber provides a sophisticated forecast, enabling retailers to plan for demand. The forecast leverages artificial intelligence (AI) so that events and phenomena that affected sales in the past, won’t adversely affect forecasting and planning for the future.
- Stockout Substitution - Flieber’s forecast replaces stockout, or other no sales periods with what would have sold had those conditions not been in place.
- Anomaly Detection - Products sell on particular days because of promotions, weather, or other circumstances. The forecast replaces these outliers with standard sales.
- COVID-19 - Many brands’ sales patterns were severely affected by COVID-19. Flieber’s forecast corrects the history from the impact of COVID-19.
- Level Shift - Change in sales pace that, unlike an outlier, changes the sales level indefinitely. The forecast detects these changes, and incorporates them into the forecast.
- Price Normalization - Prices fluctuate for many reasons, including promotions, demand, or competitive price match. Price changes can affect sales, so Flieber forecasts with normalized pricing.

Inventory Planning And Replenishment

- Plan and purchase inventory for a set period of time based on your business - whether that’s monthly, quarterly, yearly, or any other period.
- Generate POs and TOs - Flieber maps out your supply chain network, and creates customized inventory plans, generating POs for every node within your network (automatically generating one PO for each supplier > destination with all associated products), while taking into account your sales forecast, inventory in-stock and in-transit, and other variables.

Real-time Adjustments

Flieber tracks sales and supply chain operations in real-time. When something unexpected occurs (i.e., shipment delay, unexpected surge in sales), Flieber alerts you and provides recommendations to adjust delivery, promotions, sales, etc.
