2151873117

A nationwide retail chain was struggling with inaccurate inventory forecasting, leading to overstocking during low-demand seasons and product shortages during peak times. They needed an intelligent solution to analyze sales data and predict future stock requirements with precision.

Our Approach

We designed and implemented a predictive analytics system powered by AI and machine learning algorithms to forecast demand, optimize supply, and reduce wastage.

  • Aggregated and cleaned five years of historical sales and seasonal data.
  • Built predictive models using Python, TensorFlow, and Scikit-learn.
  • Integrated external data sources such as weather patterns, holidays, and regional demand trends.
  • Developed a custom dashboard that visualizes stock levels, predicts shortages, and automates reorder alerts.

Result

  1. Reduced overstock costs by 30% within the first quarter.
  2. Improved supply chain accuracy and product availability across all retail outlets.
  3. Enhanced decision-making efficiency with real-time insights and visual analytics.
