What:
30-day trial use of Inventory Advisor* at no cost.
Inventory Advisor is one of our most popular MachSix modules because it solves the base problem in inventory management- stocking too much inventory for some SKUs and too little inventory for other SKUs. The Inventory Advisor reduces stock-outs and cuts working capital by optimizing these inventory levels. It takes into consideration variability in products, processes and demand as it calculates optimal inventory and re-order quantities.
It is designed to be easy-to-use and to provide a visual, intuitive view into the tradeoffs between your inventory levels and customer service.

- Late shipments
- Unhappy Customers
- Additional Shipping Costs due to Expediting
