The Shortest Distance to Cash
CFO Magazine, David Katz, March, 2010

That's why inventory optimization is considered one of the most valuable tools in the market today. Not only does it mitigate the complexity of supply chain planning and help your organization release cash that's tied up in working capital, but it also creates a sustainable environment for reducing inventory.
