What they were dealing with.
Nexus was making inventory decisions based on data that was 90 days old. They had 180 distribution centres and 3,400 clients. Overstock and stockouts were costing them $180 million a year.
What we built.
We built a demand intelligence platform that pulls in over 240 signals including weather, economic data and client order history and updates inventory recommendations every four hours. Distribution managers see what they need to order before they run out.
