ABOUT
Since its founding in 2018, Planit has helped organizations solve pervasive problems in their supply chain, increase revenue and profitability, and improve their customer experience. Regardless of company size, supply chain organizations face common issues:
Carrying excess inventory
Aged inventory write-offs
Too many stock-outs
Planning with constrained production capacity
Poor forecasting performance
Frequent expediting of inventory
Lack of process and cross-functional communication
The common theme across these companies? A lack of resources. Too few people trying to do too much work with tools that don’t meet their needs.
We provide planners with the software and solutions they need to navigate quickly through these issues so that their time is freed up to work on scenario-based probabilistic planning, instead of getting bogged down in repetitive analyses.
