Abstract

To adopt a good inventory control it is necessary to apply a system to avoid unnecessary costs generated by poorly structured stock. Therefore, as a proposal to optimize inventory management practices in a supermarket chain company of the retail merchandise segment located in the municipality of Conde-PB, it was suggested the adoption of logistics models aimed at promoting the effectiveness of inventory control, sales and purchases assisting the organization in decision making. The research was classified as a bibliographic review of the research-action type, which sought to map the situation of the company's inventory and suggest the application of logistics methods to contribute to improvements in inventory control. Therefore, when mapping the main difficulties faced in the management of inventory, the application of the following methods was suggested: Lean production model - Kanban, ABC curve of products, UEPS stock movement model: using spreadsheet models with specific software, and Supplier Relationship Management (SRM). Finally, in the survey of existing problems in the company, it was found that inventory management is of great importance for its survival, because if there is no control it causes several costs to the company, arising from waste of materials due to breakdowns, retention of capital in materials with low turnover, which is paramount to exercise strict control over these items.
