Case Study: Stonegate Precision Tooling achieves 50% reduction in excess stock and improved cash flow with Sage Inventory Advisor

Stonegate Precision Tooling sharpens their inventory ordering with Sage Inventory Advisor

Stonegate Precision Tooling, a UK supplier to stone fabricators, struggled with unreliable demand forecasts from their Sage 200 ERP because many customers were on consignment and sales projections were erratic, forcing constant updates to minimum order quantities. To address this, Stonegate implemented Sage Inventory Advisor to get accurate, actionable inventory forecasting and classification.

Using Sage Inventory Advisor’s single dashboard and item-level drill-downs, Stonegate moved to smaller, more frequent orders, improved visibility into potential stock-outs, and better classified inventory. The result was a dramatic improvement in cash flow and inventory efficiency: excess stock fell by 50%, stock value dropped significantly, and they achieved a 96.26% fill rate (above their 95% target) within four months.
