Having the Right Product, at the Right Time, in the Right Place — at the Right Price, of Course!
But when you look around, you often see the opposite. The flow is frequently interrupted, warehouses are full of slow-moving products, and the most popular items are often out of stock.If you think about it, a supply chain can be seen as a "production process" spread out over a large area. Ideally, the flow of products should be just as lean: inventory where it's needed, quick information exchange, and a focus on the final customer.Having the Right Product, at the Right Time, in the Right Place — at the Right Price, of Course!
The paradox of most supply chains: too much of the wrong product, and not enough of the right one. The result? Stockouts that cost sales, slow-movers that tie up cash, and constant firefighting.
How We Can Help
We can help you implement the "TOC Replenishment" solution, the most exciting (and least-known) supply chain management model of the last two decades. Developed as part of the Theory of Constraints, this simple approach delivers surprising results, helping you reduce inventory without losing sales or being thrown off by seasonal demand.
TOC Replenishment works on a fundamentally different logic than traditional MRP or min-max systems. Instead of forecasting demand (which is inherently uncertain), it manages consumption in real time — replenishing based on what's actually being sold, not what was predicted.
The results are consistent:
- Inventory reduction of 30–50%
- Stockout reduction of 40–70%
- Improved product availability across all locations
- Works for distributors, retailers, and multi-echelon supply chains
How We Do It
We typically start with a meeting to get to know each other. We'll learn about your business, your client commitments, and figure out the best way to help you improve. How we move forward from there is a decision we'll make together.
Our services include:
- Training: We'll teach you how to effectively implement the TOC Replenishment approach in your business.
- Training and Consulting: In addition to training, we can provide the necessary support to determine the right stock levels for your different locations. We'll also help you figure out the best frequency and quantities for replenishment, and how to adjust for seasonality or special events like promotions, new product launches, or discontinuing old products.
This is for you if:
✓ You're a distributor or retailer with multiple SKUs or locations
✓ You struggle with seasonal variability and promotion spikes
✓ You've tried improving forecasting but the problem persists
✓ You want to free up cash locked in slow-moving inventory
