COST-BASED SAFETY STOCKS

Most safety Stock methods do not account for the item’s cost. They treat hundred-dollar items the same as one-dollar items. Play our video and learn why.

You’ll also see how the “Ultimate A, B, C” method, namely a class for every item, sets Safety Stocks at the lowest possible level of granularity and eliminates the hassle of maintaining classes. Classes get maintained automatically by the characteristics of each item.

There are other methods for calculating safety stocks. For more information see Other Safety Stocks.
