Inventory Management

Inventory Management is a key part of Freshworks’ strategy. Inventory Management is the supervision of non-capitalised assets and stock items.

It includes the following:

Inventory visibility and valuation
Lead times for replenishment of raw materials and finished goods
Returns of defective goods and materials
Management of available physical space
Management of ordering, shipping, handling and carrying costs
Forecasting of future prices, inventory levels and demand

Why is Inventory Management important?

An effective Inventory Management strategy can do lots more than just track inventory across the supply chain. It can also identify missing or malfunctioning inventory and replace it as efficiently as possible. Inventory Management provides information to help businesses which of its products account for the most sales and track those changes across different seasons throughout the year. Effective Inventory Management also allows for better relationships to be formed with other areas of the supply chain, as it will ultimately provide a better working understanding and enable fewer mistakes to be made.
