Integrated Inventory and Warehouse Management

Understanding the Principles of Applying Appropriate Inventory Methods

Inventory management plays a crucial role in operations, as inventory is considered a current asset for any business. However, holding inventory introduces risks, which are an integral part of the cost of carrying inventory. When items are stored in a warehouse, their value can diminish over time.
