This distributor had no shortage of product, but still struggled to meet demand. Inventory tracking was fragmented and reactive. Teams relied on outdated reports, siloed spreadsheets, and supplier back-and-forth to identify stockouts. It was slow, manual, and prone to error. The result: frequent delays, inconsistent fill rates, and rising frustration from customers and internal teams alike.
