Inventory Management CPFR (Collaborative Planning, Forecasting & Replenishment)
CPFR provides templates for supply chain partner collaboration. The process model at below is segmented into three stages. The planning stage establishes and updates the relationship; the sales forecasting and order replenishment stages occur more frequently. An important premise of this model is that accuracies in the forecast can be improved by having the customer and supplier participate in the forecast.

Better lead time to vendors for better forecast and order volume. Hard to forecast the demand precisely for different stores. Shorter lead time to vendors. Vendors need deal with so many different stores. The stores compete with each other for same resources.

Purchasing center to source all goods to insure the efficiency and cost control Better negotiable power for bigger quantity Lower price to customers Outsource purchasing to Li&Feng for cost reduction Buying agent independently to purchase for individual store. Saving cost based on target price Local resource. Less differentiation in products. Return goods very convenient for direct contact with vendor, less overstock or stock out.
