Supplier management features

Long lead times, supplier shutdowns, minimum order requirements and fluctuating prices can all affect how much stock you need and when you need it.

When you manage these factors separately from demand planning, it becomes harder to balance stock availability with inventory costs. EazyStock integrates supplier requirements into the planning process, helping you plan ahead and make more informed purchasing decisions.

  • Order calendars
    Align order recommendations with your purchasing routines and goods-in schedules. Account for supplier shutdowns and internal delivery restrictions to ensure you place and receive orders at the right time.
  • Supplier selection
    Compare suppliers based on factors such as lead times, unit prices, and minimum order quantities (MOQs). EazyStock helps you identify the most appropriate supplier for each order while supporting availability and service-level goals.

Additional supplier management software features:

Supplier calendars

Plan ahead for supplier shutdowns, holidays and seasonal disruptions. EazyStock accounts for periods such as Chinese New Year in inventory planning, adjusting lead times, reorder points, order quantities and safety stock levels to ensure you order enough stock before availability is affected.

Price breaks

Understand whether a bulk discount will really save you money. EazyStock compares larger discounted orders with smaller, more frequent purchases, taking into account holding costs, ordering costs and obsolescence risk.

Order fill-up

Meet minimum order values (MOVs), minimum order quantities (MOQs) and container capacity requirements without adding unwanted stock. EazyStock identifies products with upcoming demand that you can add to the order, helping you meet supplier constraints more efficiently.

FAQs about supplier management software

Supplier management software helps you make better purchasing decisions by considering factors such as supplier lead times, costs, order requirements and availability. EazyStock integrates this information into your inventory planning, helping you decide when to order, how much to buy and which supplier to use.

Better supplier management helps you balance purchasing costs with the level of stock you hold. By planning orders around demand, supplier lead times, and ordering requirements, you can avoid buying stock too early or in unnecessarily large quantities, reducing the cash tied up in inventory.

When an item is available from multiple suppliers, EazyStock evaluates factors such as lead times, prices and minimum order quantities to support supplier selection. This helps you make a more informed choice aligned with your purchasing requirements and stock needs.

Supplier and order calendars help you plan when orders can be placed, delivered or received. By accounting for supplier shutdowns, holidays, delivery schedules and other restrictions, EazyStock incorporates these factors into your inventory planning and order recommendations.

A lower unit price doesn’t necessarily translate into a lower overall cost if you end up buying more stock than you need. EazyStock helps you assess supplier price breaks alongside your inventory requirements, so you can make better-informed purchasing decisions without unnecessarily increasing stock levels.

Order fill-up helps you make better use of an existing supplier order when you need to meet requirements such as minimum order values, minimum order quantities or container capacity. EazyStock can identify suitable items to add based on future stock requirements, helping you build a more efficient order rather than simply buying more of the same items.

Supplier decisions directly affect how much stock you need and when you need it. By incorporating supplier lead times, order schedules, quantities and purchasing requirements into inventory planning, EazyStock helps you balance stock availability, inventory investment and purchasing efficiency.

Greater visibility into supplier lead times helps you plan replenishment earlier and account for potential supply constraints. EazyStock can incorporate lead times into inventory planning, helping you maintain appropriate stock levels and reduce the risk of running out while you wait for the next delivery.
