Case Study: Abbott enhances forecasting and inventory visibility with Fishbowl Inventory

Abbott Ireland Enhances Forecasting and Inventory Insights Using Fishbowl

Abbott Ireland, a healthcare company, needed to modernize its inventory management after relying on Excel spreadsheets and manual bi-weekly stock checks. The challenge became more urgent during the COVID-19 pandemic, when remote work and supply chain disruptions exposed the limits of its existing process. Fishbowl Inventory was brought in to support this shift, using Fishbowl Advanced.

Fishbowl Inventory implemented a warehouse management solution that improved inventory tracking, visibility, and control across Abbott Ireland’s operations. The system also integrated inventory data into the company’s financial planning model, strengthening forecasting and helping the team make more informed stock and supply chain decisions. Abbott Ireland described the change as going “from 0 to hero,” with the biggest impact being enhanced visibility and better financial planning.
