THIS WEEK ORDERS:
- A110 - Order 104 units
- A113 - Order 141 units
Risk Assessment:
HIGH RISK: 3 critical component(s) below reorder point
These components may cause production stoppage if inventory runs out.
Overall: 9/15 SKUs (60%) below reorder point
WARNING: More than half of inventory is below optimal levels
Recommend reviewing ordering frequency and lead time management
================================================================================
METHODOLOGY NOTES
Reorder Point Formula: ROP = (Avg Daily Demand x Lead Time) + Safety Stock
Safety Stock Formula: SS = Z-score x Std Dev x sqrt(Lead Time)
Service Levels Applied:
- Standard Components: 95% (Z=1.65) - 5% stockout risk acceptable
- Critical Components: 99% (Z=2.33) - 1% stockout risk only
Urgency Criteria:
- URGENT: Current inventory insufficient to cover lead time
- LOW: Below ROP but still have adequate days of supply
- OK: At or above reorder point
Analysis assumes normally distributed demand with CV ~ 30% (moderate variability)
