Case Study: Deslee Mattex achieves near-100% fill rate and dramatic stock-out reduction with Netstock

Deslee Mattex weaves favorable returns with NETSTOCK

Deslee Mattex, a South African manufacturer of mattress fabrics using Syspro ERP, faced continual stock-outs and poor forecasting—especially for seasonal and frequently new items—while relying on spreadsheets and lacking supplier lead-time visibility. They brought in Netstock to tackle inaccurate forecasts, new-item complexity, and inefficient inventory processes.

Netstock was integrated with Syspro to deliver improved forecasting, new‑item treatment, supplier-performance visibility, early stock‑out alerts and a sophisticated item‑classification matrix. As a result, Deslee Mattex saw stock-outs fall dramatically and achieved close to a 100% fill rate on most items, gained visibility of slow/redundant inventory to reduce excess, and improved procurement and lead‑time calculations thanks to Netstock.
