Inventory Planning
Built by 10XStock decisions made with math — reorder points, demand signals and dead-stock rules instead of gut-feel container orders.
Designed, engineered and documented by the 10X team. You own the outcome; we own the build.
What’s included
- Demand and cover analysis per SKU
- Reorder point and safety stock rules
- Dead and slow stock action rules
Problems this solves
- Bestsellers stock out while dead stock eats the warehouse
- Reorders are placed by feel
- Cash is buried in inventory nobody reviews
How an engagement runs
- 01
Scope
A short working session to define the problem, success criteria and constraints.
- 02
Plan
A concrete proposal: what gets done, by whom, checkpoints, and what it costs.
- 03
Deliver
Execution with visible progress and proof-of-work at each checkpoint.
- 04
Review
Results measured against the criteria agreed in step one — not moved goalposts.
Common questions
Will my team actually use this?
Systems are designed around how your team already works, with proof-of-work checkpoints — not a binder nobody opens.
How long does implementation take?
Most operational systems pilot within 2–6 weeks. We prefer a small working version over a long perfect plan.

Inventory Planning System
Standardised reorder decisions and surfaced dead stock for action instead of storage.
Confidentiality
The model runs on sales history you already hold — no external data source or benchmark from another client is introduced.
What you own
Reorder rules are kept simple enough for your own planning team to challenge, adjust and own — not a black box only 10X can maintain.
Often combined with
Procurement
Purchasing run as a controlled process — approved suppliers, PO discipline, three-way matching and exception handling.
Category Management
Assortment decisions made with data — what to push, fix, clear or kill, reviewed on a cycle.
Warehouse Operations
Warehouse processes designed for accuracy and speed — receiving, putaway, picking and cycle counts that hold up under volume.
