What industrial customers have to say
Implementing Netstock removed the guesswork and saved us from tedious amounts of time to work out our orders each month.
Within 6 months, there was a 14% increase in product availability and a 38% increase in sales with just a 16% increase in focused investment.
One of our key reasons to implement Netstock was to reduce excess stock. The $500k+ that’s now in our bank account rather than on our warehouse shelves is evidence enough we have achieved that!

FAQs
Industrial inventory management software helps operations and supply chain teams manage complex inventory structures, including raw materials, components, and finished goods. It streamlines procurement, optimizes stock levels, and replaces manual spreadsheets with automated, data-driven planning tools. The result: less waste, better resource allocation, and improved supply chain agility.
Accurate forecasting is critical in industries where demand can shift due to economic cycles, customer schedules, or seasonal patterns. With intelligent AI built in, Netstock’s forecasting solution analyzes historical trends, seasonality, and demand signals to generate more reliable forecasts. Netstock’s AI Pack helps you avoid costly overstocking or stock-outs and improves production planning.
Look for features that support your real-world complexity, like BOM-level visibility, lead time, and supplier performance tracking, capacity-aware planning, and multi-site inventory optimization. Bonus if it integrates seamlessly with your ERP and provides clear, actionable insights to help you make smarter decisions faster.
By dynamically adjusting safety stock based on lead time variability, supplier reliability, and demand patterns, you can prevent stock-outs of critical components without tying up working capital. Netstock’s AI tools continuously refine these buffers to reduce risk while keeping inventory lean.
Yes! Netstock is purpose-built for multi-site operations. It provides centralized visibility across all warehouses, plants, and distribution centers, so you can manage inventory holistically rather than in silos. Netstock’s excess stock redistribution feature allows you to identify surplus inventory in one location and reallocate it to sites that are understocked, reducing carrying costs, minimizing waste, and improving stock availability across the network. This ensures you’re making the most of existing inventory before placing new orders, which is especially valuable in industries with long lead times and high-value components.
