Inventory management
Inventory management balances stock levels of raw materials, work in process, and finished goods to meet service-level targets, working capital goals, supply chain constraints, and other business priorities. It encompasses effective control over inventory stock, accurate visibility to inventory levels and efficient fulfillment of customer orders. It includes execution of specific actions to avoid excess and nonproductive inventory, e.g., slow-moving and obsolete inventory.
