Requirement / Problem statement
Traditional inventory systems often struggle with dynamic forecasting, stock-outs, and delayed manual replenishment—especially in
seasonal or fast-moving markets.
Description
INVENTRA AI GENE delivers a cloud-native, AI-powered solution that monitors inventory in real time, predicts demand, detects trends, and
automates replenishment for smarter supply chain decisions.
Scope                                                                                                       GenAI | AI

Project Features / Journeys
1.Real-Time Inventory Visibility
Feature: Track inventory across locations with barcode, RFID, QR scanning, or sensor integration. Receive instant alerts on low
stock, overstock, expiry, or misplaced items.
Journey: User logs in → views dashboard → system flags critical alerts → triggers restock or relocation workflows automatically.
Benefit: Improves accuracy, reduces manual checks, and prevents unnoticed stockouts or aging stock.
2. AI-Powered Demand Forecasting
Feature: Machine learning analyzes historical sales, seasonality, regional trends, and external data (e.g., weather, promotions).
Enables granular forecasting by SKU and location.
Journey: The system learns patterns → generates demand forecasts → provides confidence intervals and rationale → user reviews
forecast adjustments.
Benefit: Reduces over- or under-ordering, improves fill rates, and aligns inventory with actual demand.
3. Automated Replenishment
Feature: AI agents create reorder recommendations, optimize allocation across warehouses or stores, and adjust based on lead
time, supplier availability, and cost.
Journey: When predicted stockout is detected, system auto-prepares procurement orders or internal transfer requests → user
approves or accepts recommendations.
Benefit: Saves manual ordering effort, speeds replenishment, and ensures the right product ends up in the right place.
                                                                                                                GenAI-2024-2025-B2

Project Features / Journeys
4. Anomaly Alerts
Feature: AI flags unusual patterns—sudden demand spikes or drops—using real-time signals like local trends, promotions, or
macroeconomic shifts.
Journey: AI identifies outliers → issues alerts or suggestions (“promotion effect”, “slow mover”) → user investigates and takes
corrective action.
Benefit: Helps teams respond quickly to risks or opportunities, reducing missed sales or excess inventory.
5. Natural Language Interface
Feature: Enable users to query the system via chat (e.g. “stock forecast for red shirts next week?”) and receive narrative
explanations or next-step suggestions.
Journey: User types or speaks a question → AI fetches relevant data → provides forecasts, alerts, or recommended actions in
conversational form.
Benefit: Non-technical stakeholders access insights easily; speeds decision-making and improves user engagement.
6. Cloud-Native & Scalable Infrastructure
Feature: Fully cloud-based platform with mobile/web access, offline-first support, real-time sync, and API integrations with ERP,
POS, or supplier systems.
Journey: Users across stores, warehouses, or on mobile can access same live data; system syncs automatically when online.
Benefit: Provides flexibility, easy integration, and supports growth without heavy infrastructure.

API
1.Interface Types:
 Implement both RESTful APIs (for CRUD and easy
integration) and optionally Graph QL for flexible querying
across     complex    datasets.    Use     Webhooks     or
WebSockets/SSE for real-time notifications.
2.Microservice Pattern:
Separate domain services (e.g. inventory, orders, alerts,
reporting), enabling    scalable, maintainable, and
independently deployable APIs.
3.Event-Driven Flow:
 Use message brokers such as Kafka or RabbitMQ to
process real-time updates, ensuring responsiveness and
fault tolerance. Apply idempotency and event sourcing for
replay ability and audits.
