PO reallocation at the speed of retail: How AI helps retailers adapt inventory decisions as demand changes

Retailers often have to commit to inventory months before it arrives when demand, inventory positions and regional needs can look very different from what they will be when the shipment reaches the network.

This white paper explores:

• The limitations of fixed PO reallocations
• Why long lead times make inbound inventory decisions difficult
• Where cost exposure sits across your inventory
• What’s already committed and what can still change
• How planners can evaluate recommendations and decide what to do next

When costs change, retailers need to understand not just what is exposed, but what those changes mean for inventory and where there is still an opportunity to act. Learn how a connected planning process can help retailers make better inventory decisions as conditions change.
