Optiply's AI purchasing algorithm includes more than 40 different calculations. Among other things, the purchasing recommendation includes real-time data from: sales data, ABC categorization, seasons, trends, peaks, (actual) delivery times and more!
Multiple holidays and seasons per industry are also included, and we also combine the knowledge and data of all our customers (fully anonymized). Even though a product may seem new, the algorithm has seen (similar) products before.
At the end of your trial period, we will meet (digitally) during a strategy call. We go through your current situation and review the results of your purchasing strategy.
We also compare the impact of different scenarios, such as seasonal demand, promotions or unforeseen fluctuations in the market. We look at what Optiply would have achieved in the same period, based on the same data set, and what the investment for that would be.
This gives you instant insight into the impact on your inventory, time savings, preventing lost sales and/or improving your cash flow, with a concrete ROI.
A simpler purchasing algorithm, such as a min/max approach, uses static, outdated data and calculates on the average of the past month to forecast inventory for the coming months.
This means that changes in demand, peaks, seasonal trends and market conditions are not accounted for. The result: frequent under- or overstocking, and the risk of lost sales or wasted inventory.
Optiply, on the other hand, works with data updated in real-time, so our forecasts are always current and react immediately to changes. This ensures that your inventory is optimal and you don't risk losses due to under- or overstocking.
