The Reality

Manual Version

“A "gut feeling" plus a simple Excel trendline.”

Breaking Point

“When your lead times double and you have no safety stock.”

Why wait?

Scaling before you understand the underlying process is a recipe for expensive shelf-ware. If you're still figuring out your flow, stick to the manual version. When the “Breaking Point” feels like a daily headache, you're ready for the tools.
