Turning Demand Signals into Inventory Decisions
Nicholas Wegman, PhD, Senior Director and Artificial Intelligence Scientist
In retail, AI only matters when it drives measurable business value. In practice, that value is realized through demand forecasts that guide inventory investment, placement decisions and the protection of margins, service levels and working capital.

Deep Dive
Smarter Inventory Decisions in the Era of AI-Driven Retail
Retail executives face a more volatile demand environment than at any point in recent decades. Consumers now expect immediate availability across stores, marketplaces and direct-to-consumer channels. A shopper encountering an out-of-stock product can instantly shift to a competing retailer on a mobile device. Inventory planning, therefore, carries greater financial and reputational consequences than traditional forecasting cycles were designed to handle. The task is complicated further by rising carrying costs and tighter capital discipline. Overstock erodes margins through markdowns or spoilage, while stockouts translate directly into lost revenue and weakened loyalty.
