13. The IQR Logic
Analyzes inventory using:
Balance on hand and unit cost
Past usage and future requirements
ABC techniques and user-defined parameters
Develops inventory quality categories:
Active: reqmt/use, balance within limits
Excess: reqmt/use, balance over user’s limits
Slow Moving: no reqmt, no use in 6 months
No Moving: no reqmt, no use in 12 months
Measures overall inventory performance.
Combines BPs with a dollar focus.
