We go to the transactional data—not the parameters or averages, but individual SKU movements, actual demand events and real lead-time distributions.

What nVentic is
nVentic is an inventory optimization company, founded in 2013 by Dan Weil and headquartered in Munich. We translate inventory science into software that runs against the transaction data your ERP already holds, so the analysis reflects what actually happened rather than the parameters someone once entered.
We are a product company rather than a consultancy. We build the analytical engine; your planners and finance team make the decisions. The engine layers over existing systems, so there is no replatforming project to approve before you can see where working capital is sitting.
The method is grounded in published inventory research and reviewed by practitioners who have run supply chains themselves. That combination is deliberate: inventory theory is well established, but most of the value is lost in the gap between the theory and the way planning actually works day to day.
