Stock & logistics
Does our stock position mean it is time to place another order?
Multiply daily demand by supplier lead time, add buffer stock and round up. Compare that trigger with uncommitted units plus confirmed inbound units arriving within the lead-time window. A position at or below the trigger signals a review.
