The need for companies to remain relevant in the market amidst the highly competitive conditions is a crucial driver for the growth of the SCM software market. Home Depot, one of the biggest retailers selling home improvement and construction products and services used to have separate logistics management departments in every single physical store to utilize replenishment and store management-related activities. This was costly as each store had to process the replenishment orders to get the required materials from the suppliers separately. After realizing that the de-centralization of the logistics management was a major issue, Home Depot decided to centralize those individual departments into one department in its corporate headquarters. With the help of technology and right SCM software solutions, Home Depot’s new centralized inventory and replenishment department’s overall performance improved the demand forecast accuracy and decreased the cost of operations for the replenishment orders.
