Inventory & FBA Management

Inventory & FBA Management That Keeps Stock Where It Needs to Be

Demand forecasting, replenishment planning, and storage limit management built to stop stockouts and excess inventory fees before they happen, not after.

Fewer Stockouts

Replenishment timing accounts for real lead times, so hot SKUs don't run out mid-sales-cycle.

Lower Storage Costs

Inventory levels get managed to avoid long-term storage fees and IPI-related storage limit cuts.

Better IPI Score

Forecasting and excess inventory cleanup are managed with IPI factors in view, not as an afterthought.

Ad Spend and Stock in Sync

Ad pacing is coordinated with inventory position so campaigns don't outrun what you can actually fulfill.

Fewer Stranded Units

Unfulfillable or stranded inventory gets identified and resolved instead of sitting as dead stock.

Overview

Inventory & FBA Management covers demand forecasting, replenishment timing, FBA storage limit and fee management, and the IPI score factors that determine how much storage space you’re allowed. The problem it solves is that inventory mistakes are expensive in both directions — a stockout kills sales velocity and ranking, while overstock eats into margin through long-term storage fees, and both usually happen because forecasting isn’t tied closely enough to actual sales and ad performance.

Our Process

1. Inventory Health Audit

We review current stock levels, sell-through rates, IPI score, and any stranded or excess inventory.

2. Forecasting Model Build

We build SKU-level demand forecasts using sales history, seasonality, and planned promotions or ad pushes.

3. Replenishment Calendar

Reorder timing gets set with lead times and FBA shipment processing delays factored in, not assumed away.

4. Storage and Fee Management

We work to keep stock within efficient storage limits and avoid long-term storage fees where possible.

5. Ongoing Monitoring

Forecasts and replenishment plans get adjusted as sales patterns, ad spend, and IPI score shift.

Who This Service Is For

  • Sellers who’ve had a stockout on a top-performing ASIN in the last year
  • Brands hit with long-term storage fees or a shrinking IPI-based storage limit
  • Fast-growing SKUs where demand is outpacing manual forecasting
  • Sellers running FBA and FBM together who need a clear split strategy
  • Anyone whose inventory planning currently lives in someone’s head or a rough spreadsheet

Why Work With Us

Inventory decisions can’t be made well in isolation from sales and ad data, which is exactly why we manage it as part of the whole account rather than a standalone forecasting exercise — our 10+ years running these accounts means we’ve seen how an ad push that isn’t checked against stock levels turns a win into a stockout. Give us your current inventory position and IPI score as a 7-Day Free Trial problem, and we’ll show you where the risk actually is.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you help recover from an IPI score that's already dropped?

Yes — we identify what's driving the score down (usually excess or stranded inventory) and work through clearing it, though score recovery happens on Amazon's timeline, not overnight.

Do you manage FBM inventory too, or only FBA?

We manage both where relevant, including the strategic split between FBA and FBM for a given SKU.

How far in advance do you forecast?

Typically a rolling 90-day forecast with a longer seasonal view layered in for predictable demand spikes like holidays.

What happens if a supplier delay throws off the replenishment plan?

We rebuild the plan around the new timeline and flag the stockout risk early so you have time to react — ads, promotions, and stock all need to move together when timelines shift.

Can you help with stranded or unfulfillable inventory that's already stuck?

Yes, resolving stranded inventory is a common starting point — we work through Amazon's process to get it unstranded or removed.

Does this include international or multi-country FBA management?

We can discuss scope for multi-marketplace FBA setups during onboarding, depending on which regions you operate in.
