Key Issues
  • Where is the inventory?
  • What level of inventory is "normal?"
  • Do actual inventory and days of inventory differ among various nodes in the supply chain?
  • Are there identifiable trends with inventory and Days of Inventory?
  • What areas of the supply chain are better/worse off than others?
  • Should I lower prices to move inventory?
  • Should I reduce or boost utilization?
  • Are orders going to be fulfilled on time
