Replenishment
You follow one menswear shirt through a fourteen-week spring at a retailer with sixty-two shops. You build the weekly pull size by size. You meet a warehouse holding more shirts than the shops asked for and still unable to fill the order. You watch three shops get identical stock and finish in three different places. Then you count a season that lost 1,120 sales with no bad weekly decision in it.

Course value
What will you be able to do?
Work outcome
You can allocate an intake across stores on evidence rather than an even split, tell the difference between the stock your system claims and the stock that exists, and plan for returns as a cost you priced in.
Who it is for
Brand and buying-office teams.
What you will produce
You build a working replenishment control for one style. You do the per-size pull calculation, with its presentation minimum and cover target. You write a rationing rule for a warehouse that cannot pay. You rebuild a shop-level size curve from in-stock weeks only. You run a censored-demand test on your own till data. And you do a season post-mortem separating what the buy decided from what the weekly run decided.
