Why use Management One
Inventory planning—often called open-to-buy (OTB)—reveals how much inventory you need to meet demand.
The fundamentals are simple, but accurate planning requires accurate projections, and predicting the future—especially in uncertain times—is no simple thing.
With over 30 years of helping independent retailers, our proven inventory plans are catered specifically for your business to increase cash-flow, with optimal (or less) inventory.
Proper merchandise planning is the only way to maintain control when outside factors bring uncertainty in their wake.
