Prediko enables operations and supply planning teams to improve forecasting, connect demand and replenishment planning, and manage purchase orders in one system. This helps teams make earlier purchasing decisions, reduce manual planning work, and build a more reliable, proactive inventory process.

Business challenge

Before Prediko, Lori Beds relied on Inventory Planner by Sage for inventory planning, but the team faced limited product development, slow support, frequent bugs, a clunky UI/UX, low confidence in planning outputs, and inflexible inventory planning. This created day-to-day friction and made it harder to translate forecasts into confident purchasing decisions.

Solution

Prediko became Lori Beds’ core system for forecasting, supply planning, and purchase order management. It connects demand, supply, and replenishment planning in one workflow, gives teams a shared view of forecasts and assumptions, improves inventory modeling, and provides clearer operational visibility for daily purchasing and PO follow-up.
