An inventory management system (IMS) is a software application or set of tools that help businesses organize, track, and manage their inventory. The primary goal of such a system is to ensure efficient operations, minimize costs, and maximize profitability by providing real-time visibility into stock levels and inventory-related activities.
Implementing an effective inventory management system can significantly improve a company’s overall efficiency, reduce the risk of stockouts or overstock situations, and enhance decision-making through accurate and up-to-date information.
