Your Make-to-Stock Manufacturing business requires a whole range of processes and operations in order to survive, thrive and withstand all the potential pitfalls and obstacles you face in the current business environment.

Traditionally, Make-to-Stock manufacturing is the model people think of most when they think of Manufacturers. As is evident from the name itself, you are a manufacturer who makes your item to stock and your inventory waits for an order. You are the final buffer in the long JIT supply chain. You are the one who holds the inventory for all those other companies that use you for their inventory buffer (or drum, if you prefer that terminology).

Typically, you have used a forecast model based on historical sales of an item or a forecast based on your sales department’s projections on customer demand. You are frequently in touch with your customers, getting revised forecasts and blanket orders so you can modify your stocking levels to meet your customers needs. You spend a great deal of time to ensure the accuracy of your models. And yet, they are never “right”.
