Inventory Optimization & Capital Efficiency
22% Reduction in Inventory Carrying Costs
Streamlining messy multi-location warehouse data into an automated FSN (Fast, Slow, Non-moving) analytics pipeline to unlock trapped working capital.
The Challenge
A multi-location distributor tracking stock across shifting channels suffered from severe inventory blindspots. Stock data was stuck in lagging Tally entries and massive, disjointed Excel spreadsheets updated manually by individual warehouse managers. This data lag caused continuous emergency ordering of already overstocked items, while fast-moving SKUs frequently ran dry—trapping significant working capital in aging, stagnant stock.
The Solution
CurveFore engineered an automated data pipeline that directly extracts stock records from Tally and warehouse databases without disrupting day-to-day operations.
Automated FSN Analysis: Built a live dashboard classifying inventory into Fast, Slow, and Non-moving buckets dynamically.
Aging-Batch Trackers: Programmed logic to instantly flag raw materials or finished goods approaching expiration or shelf-life limits.
Automated Triggers: Created logic-driven visual thresholds showing exact reorder triggers based on live consumption velocity instead of manager guesswork.
