Solution

Improve inventory and supply-chain decisions

Inventory decisions are made against cost targets; the consequences land in production. Connecting the two is what changes the decision.

What this looks like on site

  • Critical spares are unavailable while slow-moving stock accumulates
  • Stockouts are treated as procurement failures, not production losses
  • Min/max levels were set years ago and never revisited
  • Supplier lead-time reality differs from what the system assumes

What it costs you

Working capital tied up in the wrong parts, plus extended downtime waiting for the right ones. Both are usually reported, but never against each other.

Who this is for: Supply-chain managers, maintenance planners and finance leaders.

What VMatrix provides

What we build

  • Criticality model linking parts to asset risk and production exposure
  • Stockout-to-downtime impact analysis
  • Reorder and coverage recommendations with financial reasoning
  • Slow-moving and obsolete stock exposure
  • Supplier lead-time performance against assumptions

Outcomes

What you should expect

  • Inventory positioned against operational risk, not habit
  • Stockout consequences quantified in production terms
  • A defensible case for both increases and reductions

What we need from you

We begin with the records you already keep. Nothing here requires new instrumentation.

  • Inventory master and transaction history
  • Work order parts consumption
  • Purchase order and lead-time history
  • Asset criticality or downtime records
