Methods and applications
Inventory analysis is widely used to classify and manage stock items according to their demand patterns and strategic importance within a firm’s operations. Modern analytical approaches combine traditional inventory control with techniques such as ABC–XYZ classification and safety-stock modelling to determine optimal stock levels and reduce the likelihood of shortages. These methods enable firms to identify high-value items with stable demand, distinguish them from low-value or highly variable-demand items, and allocate resources more efficiently.[3]
