Three tools companies can use for demand management include: forecasting methods, inventory control systems, and pricing strategies. Forecasting methods are used to look at historical data such as sales volumes or inventories over a certain period of time in order to predict future needs or demands so that production capacity can be adjusted accordingly. Inventory control systems enable businesses to track items such as stock levels, orders placed with suppliers, shipment dates from vendors, delivery times etc., which helps them manage inventory levels more effectively by planning ahead for fluctuations in product demand. Lastly pricing strategies involve charging prices that reflect both supply and demand – setting prices too low will result in lost profit margins while setting prices too high may discourage customers from purchasing the product/service altogether; therefore it's important to strike a balance between profitability goals and customer satisfaction objectives when determining price points.
