From data silos to decision intelligence

How retailers can turn fragmented enterprise data into faster, more trusted inventory decisions

Inventory decisions need connected context

A projected stockout can involve more than demand. Promotions, supplier lead times, distribution centre inventory, substitutes and transport capacity can all affect what happens next.

This perspective paper explores how retailers can connect business context across existing systems using a semantic layer, ontology and knowledge graph. It also outlines a practical way to begin: focus on one high-value, bite-sized inventory decision, test it in a governed environment, validate the business value and scale what works.

What the paper covers:

  • Why fragmented data makes inventory decisions harder to explain and act on
  • How a semantic layer and knowledge graph can connect business context across systems
  • How to start with one focused decision and build toward production-ready intelligence
