Case Study: Metalworks improves inventory management with Netstock

How Metalworks Took Control of Their Inventory Planning

Metalworks turned to Netstock to improve inventory management across a large, complex product range. Like many manufacturers and distributors, Metalworks was dealing with the challenge of balancing service levels, stock-outs, excess inventory, forecasting uncertainty, and time-consuming spreadsheet-based planning.

Using Netstock’s intelligent inventory management approach, Metalworks could classify items, improve forecasting, set dynamic safety stock, define stocking policies, and automate exception-based ordering. The result was a more disciplined replenishment process designed to increase sales, reduce cash tied up in inventory, and cut firefighting across the supply chain, though no specific numerical impact was provided in the case study.
