E2E Shelf-Life Simulation and Optimization
Challenges
Shelf life is a critical aspect for many companies, yet it is often overlooked – the impact of shelf life is not even recorded in standard corporate financial statements.
Mismanagement of shelf life can lead to high returns/waste and significantly impact a company’s profit margin. Today, tracking shelf life in the supply chain, understanding its impact on business performance, and optimizing it have become major challenges for many companies.
