01 / PROBLEM
Every Monday the owner rebuilt reorder spreadsheets by hand. Stockouts on high-velocity SKUs were happening weekly in three locations, and surplus on slow movers was absorbing ~$40k of working capital at any given moment. No shared view between store managers and the back office.
02 / APPROACH
Built a single operations console on top of their existing POS (Square) and two supplier portals. The dashboard forecasts reorder quantities per SKU per location using trailing velocity, auto-drafts purchase orders, and routes them to managers for single-tap approval. Stockout alerts fire in Slack before shelves empty.
03 / OUTCOMES
- 01Stockouts down 72% in 90 days
- 02Working capital tied in surplus inventory reduced by $31k
- 03Owner reclaimed ~6 hours/week previously spent on manual reorders
- 04Single source of truth across 6 stores — no more Monday spreadsheet ritual
