Business Definition for: Replenishment System
- an inventory control system that relies on accurate estimates of usage rates and delivery lead times to allow orders to be completed and to ensure stock does not run out. The timing of a replenishment order is crucial, as buffer stock should not be allowed to run out during the time it takes for a delivery to arrive.
