Cycle Counting

Cycle counting is an inventory management method where a portion of the inventory is counted regularly, rather than counting everything all at once. This process helps businesses maintain accurate stock levels by identifying and correcting discrepancies over time. Instead of a yearly full inventory count, companies schedule counts for specific items more frequently, often focusing on high-value or fast-moving products. This approach minimizes disruptions to operations, allows for timely updates, and helps improve overall inventory accuracy, ensuring that businesses can meet customer demand without excess stock or shortages.
