Operations team reviewing stock issues

When you need inventory consulting

New software alone rarely fixes stock problems. Often, your systems disagree on which one owns each quantity and when it changes.

Channels sell stock you don’t have

Your webshop, marketplaces and physical stores show different quantities, so orders arrive for items already reserved, damaged or sold.

Your team fixes stock by hand

Staff correct quantities in spreadsheets because ERP, store and online figures don’t match, and nobody knows which one is right.

Returns and cancellations distort stock

Canceled orders and returned items go back on sale too early, or stay blocked long after they could be sold again.

Inventory management consulting use cases

Consulting pays off when stock data, not the warehouse itself, causes overselling, manual corrections or orders you cannot fulfill.

Typical situations where inventory management consulting delivers the most value:

  • Stores and webshop share stock

    A retail chain sells the same items in stores and online, and both channels promise units the other already sold.

  • Distributor with several warehouses

    A B2B distributor holds stock in several locations, and buyers see availability that ignores transfers, reservations or damaged goods.

  • ERP and online store disagree

    Your ERP, OMS or WMS and the online store calculate available stock differently, and nobody agreed which figure is final.

  • Bundles and kits

    You sell bundles or kits built from single items, and component stock is not reduced correctly when a kit sells.

  • Returns and pickup across channels

    Customers buy online, pick up or return in store, and returned items go back on sale before anyone checks their condition.

  • Before a new platform or ERP

    You are moving to a new ecommerce platform, ERP or OMS and need stock rules and ownership agreed before go-live.

What our inventory consulting includes

Start with an assessment, then choose only the follow-up work you need. Each part is scoped and estimated separately.

Stock flow audit

We trace receipts, sales, reservations, transfers and returns for sample items across your ERP, stores and online channels.

Stock ownership map

We agree which system and which team may change each quantity: on hand, reserved, blocked and offered online.

Stock mismatch list

We list where stock goes wrong, such as double reservations, late cancellations and stale feeds, with their business impact.

Recommendation and implementation

We recommend a rule change, configuration, connector repair or new software, and our team can build it.

See inventory software development

How we work

We start with a few real items and one stock flow, and expand only after the rules work.

1. Share one stock flow

You share an anonymized item, its channels and locations, and quantities from each system, with one failed order.

2. Map stock and ownership

We trace how each quantity changes across ERP, stores and online channels, and who is allowed to change it.

3. Test the risky cases

We check store sales during online reservations, late cancellations, uninspected returns and stale stock feeds before any rollout.

4. Recommend, fix and measure

You get a scoped recommendation. After the fix, we compare stock mismatches and failed reservations with your starting point.

Stock and inventory case studies

Frequently asked questions

We trace how stock moves between your ERP, stores and online channels, agree which system owns each quantity, list where it goes wrong and recommend the fix.

Not always. Overselling often comes from unclear ownership or a broken connector. We check your current ERP, OMS and WMS features and existing connectors before recommending custom work.

There is no default winner. For each item and location, one system holds the quantity the others follow, and only agreed events may change it. We map this with your team.

Yes. We agree how kits use component stock, when pickup orders reserve units and when returns can be resold. We built bundle stock logic for Undrgoods.

Yes. We deliver connector repairs, ERP integrations and custom inventory software, scoped separately from the assessment. You can also hand our recommendation to your own team.

The number of channels, locations and systems that change stock, data quality, bundle and return rules, and vendor access. The assessment is estimated separately from implementation.
