The stock manager of sales and distribution for Toffee Inc., a confectionery company, had just concluded a meeting with all relevant employees. The assembly had not been completely positive. The voice of the production manager still echoed in his ears: "If the ingredient inventory isn't re examined and reworked to the company's edge subsequently [soon] the ultimate products based on these sorts of ingredients will cease to afford the type of profits that the company expects."
The inventory supervisor needed to prepare a comprehensive forecasting and inventory management strategy with a view to decrease the cost of managing the supply chain by judicious use of improvement in the ingredient stock purchasing and management systems, better forecasting, and resources.
