Human vs AI: A Clear Advantage
| Challenge | Human-Led Inventory Forecasting | AI-Powered Inventory Forecasting |
|---|---|---|
| Accuracy | Relies on historical data and manual adjustments, prone to human error and bias. | Uses advanced algorithms to analyse vast datasets and identify complex patterns. |
| Efficiency | Time-consuming and resource-intensive, especially for large and complex inventories. | Automates the forecasting process, freeing up staff to focus on strategic initiatives. |
| Adaptability | Struggles to adapt to changing market conditions and unexpected events. | Continuously learns from new data and adjusts forecasts accordingly. |
| Visibility | Limited visibility into real-time inventory levels across the supply chain. | Provides real-time visibility into inventory levels and demand patterns. |
| Cost | Can lead to higher inventory holding costs due to overstocking and inefficient purchasing decisions. | Optimises inventory levels, reducing holding costs and improving cash flow. |
| Responsiveness | Difficult to respond quickly to unexpected changes in demand. | Allows businesses to quickly adjust inventory levels in response to changing market conditions. |
