Challenges in Inventory Management
One of the primary challenges in maintaining inventory levels is the unpredictability of demand fluctuations. Traditional inventory forecasting models can provide a general idea of stock levels, but they often fall short when faced with unanticipated demand spikes. These fluctuations, driven by various events, can catch supply chains off guard, leading to inefficiencies, waste, and missed opportunities.
