Ballast

Inventory, purchasing and demand forecasting for retail stores.

Know what to reorder

Demand forecasts that account for lead time, safety stock and the days a variant was unsellable — and that show their working, so a suggestion can be argued with.

Purchase orders that survive reality

Partial receipts, over- and under-deliveries, and landed costs allocated across freight and duty, written back to inventory as it arrives.

Counts, transfers and write-offs

Blind stocktakes on a phone, transfers between locations, and a reason code on every adjustment so the variance can be explained later.

Open Ballast for your store

Your store's domain, or the address of its admin — either works.
