Bank to provide AI-driven solutions to improve their inventory optimization process for their event business. Invent Analytics is a leading provider of innovative inventory optimization solutions that provides an automated-decisions platform to help retailers optimize their inventory levels to maximize profitability.

Tailored Brands’ decision to partner with Invent Analytics was made in response to anticipating its customers’ evolving preferences for various style, color and size choices in its tuxedo business and the need for a more advanced approach to optimize inventory planning and allocation. With Invent Analytics' AI-powered solutions, Tailored Brands achieved higher forecast accuracy and more precise inventory planning, including optimized buying at style-size level, which reduced orders and increased profitability. Further, optimized allocation increased availability at style-size level, driving significant margin (i.e., substantially reduced stockout-based substitutions) and improving overall customer satisfaction.

"Invent Analytics' AI-driven solutions provide us with the intelligence we need to optimize our inventory levels and reduce inventory substitutions, while ensuring that we always have the right product/size in stock to meet customer demand.”
