Inventory & Reorder Policy

Set reorder points and quantities for your stock items from usage patterns, lead times, and the real cost of stockouts vs overstock.

Help me set inventory policy for: {{items}} (per item: monthly usage, supplier lead time, cost, shelf life if any, what a stockout costs us).

For each item: reorder point (lead-time demand + safety stock sized to usage variability and stockout pain — show the math simply), order quantity (balancing order costs, volume breaks, storage, and cash tied up), and review cadence. Then the portfolio view: which items deserve tight management vs a simple two-bin rule (80/20 by value×criticality), the seasonal adjustments my usage notes suggest, and the early-warning signal that a policy needs revisiting (usage trend, lead time slipping). Keep it runnable in a spreadsheet.

Fields like {{ this }} are placeholders — replace them with your own details, or let Aria ask you for them.
