Turn inventory into a strategic lever.
Jenkins & Johnson Optimize gives e-commerce CFOs and operations teams demand forecasting, SKU-level inventory planning, and fulfillment cost control in one place. It keeps cash moving when seasonality hits and churn gets ugly.
Every dollar tied up in the wrong inventory is a dollar not growing your brand.
See where stock is sitting too long, too early, or too deep.
Watch inventory dollars against revenue before cash gets stuck.
Reorder decisions land fast enough to matter in peak weeks.
Forecast demand by week, not by guess.
The model reads sales history, marketing calendars, holidays, weather, and launch timing. It keeps a rolling 12-month view so you can place inventory before the spike, not after it.
Short history on a new product is fine. Confidence bands show where the forecast is tight and where it needs a human call.
| SKU | Next 4 weeks | Trend | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Core Hoodie | 4,280 units | Up 18% |
|
| Travel Bottle | 1,640 units | Flat |
|
| Launch Kit | 980 units | New |

Reorder points that match your cash plan.
Reorder alerts
Set a service level, then let the model calculate the stock point. A 98% target is fine. So is something tighter for your hero SKUs.
Budget impact preview
Test safety stock changes before you commit the spend. The platform shows cash tied up, margin pressure, and the budget hit in one line.
Warehouse allocation
Split shipments hurt margin. The system suggests the right warehouse mix so you move less freight and keep fulfilment costs under control.
See the cost before the order ships.
Model per-order fulfilment cost by warehouse, carrier, and delivery speed. Change a surcharge, then watch the delta update in real time. The difference shows up fast.
| Channel | Base cost | Peak cost | Delta |
|---|---|---|---|
| In-house East | $7.40 | $8.95 | +$1.55 |
| 3PL West | $6.15 | $6.88 | +$0.73 |
| Express ship | $11.20 | $13.10 | +$1.90 |
In-house vs outsourced
Use outsourced fulfilment for volatile lines. Keep high-margin hero SKUs close to the customer when split shipments start eating the margin.
Cash tied up in stock should be visible now.
The dashboard tracks DIO, DSO, DPO, turnover, and gross margin together. When inventory days creep above target, the alert is right there.
Inventory, margin, and cash move together.
Pull cash back before the quarter closes.
Buy later when demand signal is soft.
Keep best sellers in range during peaks.
E-commerce brands using Jenkins & Johnson Optimize reduce inventory days by 22% on average.
Shopify, Amazon Seller Central, and NetSuite integrations keep the numbers aligned. You get one budget view, one forecast, and one place to make the call.
The forecast stopped our overbuying on two launch cycles. We saw the cash impact before we placed the next PO.
We needed a clear view of demand, fulfilment cost, and working capital in one place. Jenkins & Johnson Optimize gave us a weekly planning rhythm that our team actually uses. The reorder alerts are tied to lead times, and the budget preview tells us what a larger buy will do before we approve it.
Because it shows the cash hit, the stock gap, and the shipping cost in the same screen. That made the decision simple.
