Understanding Reorder Point

What reorder point is

Reorder point = (average daily sales × lead time in days) + safety stock. It is the inventory level at which you place a new order so fresh stock arrives just as you run out — avoiding both stockouts and overstock.

Why safety stock matters

Demand and lead times vary. Safety stock is the buffer that absorbs a sales spike or a late shipment. Too little risks stockouts; too much ties up cash. Tune it to your demand volatility.

Stockouts and competitors

When you stock out, customers buy from competitors — and may not come back. Monitoring competitor stock and pricing (Price Patrol does both) helps you spot demand shifts early and time reorders around the market.

Never Hand Sales to a Competitor

Price Patrol monitors competitor pricing and stock so you can react to demand shifts and keep your bestsellers available.
