If you are the chauffeur or a passenger on a warehouse-driven business, you probably know the feeling of driving in complete darkness when it comes to your purchasing management. You make adjustments to your seat, turn on the engine and are now ready to send out orders. But then you realize that you are out of gas. The tank is empty – because you haven’t purchased enough products to meet the demand of your customers. Conversely, you may also buy too many products at once, thus skyrocketing your inventory value, due to the fact that your purchases aren’t coordinated with your sales forecasts. Both instances suggest that your purchase management has crashed.
The cause of this crash is most likely due to the fact that you are conducting your purchases based on your gut feeling, Excel sheets or the eye test at the warehouse.
