The question is the answer.™
The Theory of Constraints for distribution is centered on the Vendor Management Inventory (VMI) pull-system of inventory management. Most client organizations oscillate between the pressure of having to hold too much inventory to protect sales and wanting to hold less inventory to minimize expenses. The system tends to reach a balance point that reflects a compromise. We work with our clients to help their clients ensure a high level of performance while reducing their cost of inventory through a VMI process.
