Problem Statement
IPI Score for the account is declining due to low sell-through and presence of excess inventory
Impact
1. The storage limits are limited, affecting our replenishment recommendations and shipment creation week on week.
2. AMZ would only grant the unlimited storage limit once our IPI Score is above 400.
Team's Actions
1. The IP Team ensured we were always on stock by tapering the replenishment recommendation based on the available storage limits.
2. The Logistics Team processed shipments on time when replenishment recommendations were provided so that no issues would be intercepted in the shipment creation before the restock limits moved again.
3. Client Success Team kept the IP Team in the loop for any sales and marketing plans that needed to be factored into the forecasts to ensure stock availability.
IPI Score Management x Storage Limits
Results
1. Based on the graph above, the IPI score improved from May to the end of June 2022.
2. However, since Amazon awards an unlimited storage limit per quarter, the IPI Score above 400 needs to be maintained until the end of the 3rd quarter (September 2022), which the team successfully managed through the actions mentioned above.
3. The unlimited storage limit was awarded to the account in October 2022 – beginning of Q4.
