Inventory management aims to maintain

optimal inventory levels to meet
demand without excessive costs or
stockouts.
Inventory management is the process
of forecasting
Forecasting is the
practice of predicting
future events or
conditions by analyzing
patterns and trends in
historical and current data.
Inventory management is the process of
Ordering.
refers to the process of replenishing stock to ensure that the
right amount of inventory is available to meet demand while
minimizing costs. It involves determining what, when, and how
much to order, considering factors like customer demand,
storage capacity, lead time, and cost efficiency. Effective
ordering strategies help businesses maintain a balance
between avoiding stockouts and reducing excess inventory,
which can tie up capital.
 Inventory management is the process of
Receiving .
refers to the process of accepting and recording the arrival of
goods or materials from suppliers. It's a critical step that ensures
inventory accuracy and quality control.
The receiving process typically involves the following:
•Verification: Checking the delivery against the purchase order to confirm that the right
items, quantities, and specifications have been delivered.
•Inspection: Examining goods for any damage, defects, or discrepancies to ensure they
meet quality standards.
•Documentation: Updating inventory records, such as logging the delivery into inventory
systems or marking off items received.
•Storage: Organizing and placing items in designated storage areas for easy tracking and
access.
Inventory management is the process
of allocating stock through rigorous
evaluation and planning.
refers to the process of distributing available inventory to
specific locations, orders, or customers based on business
priorities and demand forecasts. Proper stock allocation
ensures that the right products are in the right place at
the right time to meet customer needs and minimize
delays.

Warehouse management focuses on running an efficient
warehouse as a whole.

It concentrates on your warehouse’s operational aspects,

such as storing, retrieving and transporting goods, to

TECHNIQUES

WAREHOUSE INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
1 ABC analysis is an
inventory
management
technique that
allows you
to identify the
value of your
inventory based on
its popularity.
This technique can
help you identify
ABC analysis works
by grouping products
into A, B and C
categories.
Your most valuable
products are labeled
Category A, your
next most valuable
products are labeled
Category B, and
Category C products
2 Perpetual Inventory
Management
Perpetual inventory
management is a
technique in which
you count your
inventory as soon as it
arrives using
radio-frequency identificati
on (RFID)
and point-of-sale (POS)
3 Economic order
quantity (EOQ) is an
inventory management
technique that allows you
to determine the
optimal quantity of
goods to order so you
can meet customer
demands and cut
inventory costs.
Formula for EOQ:
EOQ = √((2DS)/H)

D = annual demand for

the product (in units)
S = cost to place an order
(per order)
H = cost to hold one unit
of inventory for a year
(also known as the
carrying cost)
EOQ = the optimal order
Formula for EOQ: EOQ =
√((2DS)/H)

Annual demand (D) = 12,000

bottles
Ordering cost per order (S) =
₱150
Holding cost per bottle per year
(H) = ₱5
4 Safety stock inventory
is an inventory
management
technique that allows
you to meet
customer
demand despite
supply chain
disruptions and
unexpected
To implement the safety stock inventory
technique:

Determine the level of safety

stock you need
Monitor inventory levels
• Reorder goods
5 Batch tracking is an
inventory management
technique that allows you
to monitor inventory
expiration
dates or track
defective items back
to their original
batch to help you ensure
quality control and
seamless product
This is particularly
important in industries
such as food,
pharmaceuticals, and
cosmetic.
6 Dropshipping is an inventory
management technique that allows
you to ship products directly from
your third-party supplier or
manufacturer, rather than storing
inventory in your own facility.

To implement dropshipping, you

purchase items from a third-party
supplier, who then ships them
directly to your customers.
7 • FIFO, or first in, first out,
is an inventory
management technique
in which you sell your
older inventory first,
making way for newer
items to keep your
inventory fresh.
• On the other hand, LIFO
or last in, first out, is a
technique in which
you sell your latest
inventory first, allowing

8 Just-in-time (JIT)
inventory
management is a
technique that allows
you to prevent dead
stock, or unsold
inventory, by only
ordering and
receiving items

Utilizing Warehouse Management

Systems (WMS)
Adopting Advanced Warehouse
Technologies (Added)
Key benefits of a
WMS include:

•Improved Inventory Accuracy: Real-

time tracking of stock levels reduces
discrepancies and enhances inventory
control.
• Optimized Storage Utilization: Efficient space
management leads to better
organization and increased storage
capacity. ​
Enhanced Order Processing: Streamlined
workflows result in faster and more accurate order
fulfillment. ​
Adopting Advanced Warehouse
Technologies (Added)

Incorporating advanced technologies into warehouse

operations can significally enhance efficiency and accuracy.
Technologies such as automated storage and retrieval
systems(AS/RS), autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and
barcode scanning systems streamline various processes,
from inventory management to order fulfillment.
 AS/RS
Can automate the storage and retrieval of goods, reducing
labor costs and minimizing errors. Similarly ,AMRs can
transport items within the warehouse, optimizing material
handling and increasing throughput.

AS/RS: AMRs:
