Background
Businesses with fast moving products resulting in inefficient and inaccurate re-stocking. Review of the current reporting provided indicated a long delay in accessing the data needed on-site. Resulting in over ordering new stock or running out of stock across the network.

The Challenge
For a business to respond in time to their customers’ needs they need to know what they want, and when.  They then need a fast and accurate response from those delivering the stock.
