Stock review, and Fulfilment cycle

We know inventory plays a lot of role in a Manufacturing organization. You will be needing inventory that must be procured, stored, moved, handled, regularly counted, made, reworked on need,  stored for dispatch and dispatched to customers. At every stage of using Inventory in multiple phase of life cycle you will be performing different types of transactions. Not performing these transactions in right manner can lead to huge costs, loss of business and reputation.

Major activities involved may be:

      1. Classification and categorization of Inventory to set the Inventory policies on multiple groups of Inventories
        1. Inventory review and Order fulfilment cycle is one of the key processes in Inventory Management
        2. The review methods and measurements are determined by multiple categorization of Items and setting priorities accordingly
      2. Fulfilment through Internal or external Procurement of inventory for making your products. Some of the material can be made within your factory to use in manufacturing the final products. The rest are procured from external sources.
      3. Inspection of received items from procurement
      4. Storing the items in appropriate storage space
      5. Tracking the health of inventory according to shelf life (perishable items), delicacy (glass products), cost (expensive items), special needs of storage (cold and dark storage for some types of medicines) and many other consideration
      6. Inventory valuation and correction
      7. Regular correction of stock through methods such as physical inventory and cycle counting
      8. Disposing the obsolete and some non-conforming inventories
      9. Performance metrics for Inventory Management. There are multiple measures such as Inventory turns, storage space reduction, Unit Price and many others to evaluate the Inventory management performance.

Each of above is a topic on it’s own within Inventory Management. Hence Inventory Management is a big topic that deserves special focus even for briefly running through it.
