Today many companies invest large sums of money in an ERP package or other complete set
of systems to automate the transactions processing and information requirements for all areas
(Manufacturing, Finance, Sales and Marketing, Distribution, Purchasing….) of their business.
Unfortunately, these packages generally include a basic and academic forecasting and inventory
replenishment module to round out their offerings. In contrast, FIC’s sole focus and expertise is
in the development of forecasting and inventory replenishment systems.
After 20 years of developing customized forecasting and inventory control systems for multiple
industries, the principals at FIC set out on a mission to design and develop advanced decision
support systems for forecasting and inventory management. Four design criteria were
established.
- Use sound, tried and proven mathematical and statistical techniques
- Allow for many constraints and considerations learned through years of experience with
various industries
- Be applicable in various complex business environments
- Install and implement easily on popular operating systems.
Today the FIRM system is FIC's forecasting and
inventory management system that satisfies
the above design criteria and that automatically generates good forecasts and makes intelligent
replenishment decisions. FIRM systems free up valuable time for personnel to address
exceptional problems or conditions that require manual attention.
Whether your business currently has a home grown or a commercial ERP or other package to
run your business, FIC’s FIRM system can be easily integrated into your existing configuration.
