Problem

When I worked at Mantrac / Unatrac Group, one of the biggest challenges we faced was inventory control. The company had a large inventory of spare parts and equipment, but it was difficult to keep track of everything. We often struggled with overstocking or understocking items, which led to lost sales or increased costs due to excess inventory.

To solve this problem, we needed a better system for tracking inventory levels and predicting demand for different products. We also needed a way to streamline our ordering process and ensure that we always had the right items in stock when customers needed them.

Solution

To address these challenges, we implemented a new inventory management system that used data analytics and machine learning algorithms to predict demand for different products. This allowed us to optimize our inventory levels and reduce waste while ensuring that we always had the right items in stock when customers needed them.

We also streamlined our ordering process by implementing an online portal where customers could place orders directly. This reduced the workload on our sales team and ensured that orders were processed quickly and accurately.
