SYSPRO, a leading producer of enterprise software, has announced the publication of its new book on Inventory Optimization. Supply Chain, Inventory Management and Optimization-Skills for Small Businesses, written by noted technical author and information architect Sean Wheller, is an introduction to Inventory Optimization and directed at individuals who need superior insight into the tenets of supply chain, inventory management and optimization in order to make more informed inventory related decisions
When SYSPRO decided to develop an Inventory Optimization solution for the company's Enterprise Application Suite, it became apparent that many persons using the system would not be experts in this highly specialized field. Therefore, the company decided to publish a book that would explain the aspects of Inventory Optimization and place it in the context of modern supply chain practices in a manner easy to comprehend.
The book is divided into five parts, each focusing on a different dimension of inventory control. The first part is an introduction to Supply Chains, Inventory Management and Inventory Optimization. This segment provides the foundation for the remaining parts of the book.
The following segment provides an in-depth look at the Supply Chain, taking a high-level look at how inventory moves from manufacturers through to end customers and the decisions a business must make in order to shape a beneficial supply chain.
The next part focuses on Inventory Management and is concerned with the practices a business should have in place in order to control inventory efficiently.
The remainder of the book discusses Inventory Optimization and the technology necessary to implement an electronic collaborative supply chain to maximize the ways in which trading partners can cooperate.
Inventory Optimization for manufacturers and distributors is a vital part of achieving a lean environment where the focus shifts from individual supply chain elements to a holistic approach that emphasizes throughput of the entire supply chain. The objectives are to lower inventory carrying costs, maximize inventory turns and enhance customer service through rapid order fulfillment.
This SYSPRO book will provide a significant pathway to the strategic intelligence that is necessary to achieve these goals.
