To improve the way it predicts demand, True Value is adding technology from JDA Software Inc. so it can adjust inventory levels more quickly, particularly for goods with highly variable demand like seasonal, promotional an weather-related goods. The software incorporates detailed information daily so the company isn’t relying on monthly forecasts.
