(Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Noriko Harada, hereinafter 'AI CROSS') will co-host an online webinar titled 'Ordering is Merely the Final Outcome: How to Optimize Procurement to Prevent Both Overstock and Stockouts' on Friday, July 24, 2026, together with Persol X Technology Co., Ltd. (Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; President: Shinji Masaoki). This webinar will present both companies' insights on systematizing the end-to-end process from AI demand forecasting to procurement decisions.

Event Overview

- Title: Ordering is Merely the Final Outcome: How to Optimize Procurement to Prevent Both Overstock and Stockouts - Date and Time: Friday, July 24, 2026, 13:00–14:00 JST - Participation Fee: Free - Format: Online via Zoom - Organizers: AI CROSS Co., Ltd. / Persol X Technology Co., Ltd. - Registration: https://aicross.co.jp/deep-predictor/seminar/seminar-260724/

Background

AI CROSS has been strengthening joint sales activities with Persol X Technology, the authorized distributor of AI CROSS’s AI demand forecasting and operations service 'Deep Predictor.' Building on the success of their first co-hosted seminar on April 22, 2026, this second event aims to further deepen collaboration and expand joint business opportunities.

Agenda

The webinar will reframe ordering as 'the final outcome' and re-examine inventory challenges from pre-order processes. In the first half, AI CROSS will explain why demand forecasting often relies on intuition, experience, and gut feeling (KKD), and how 'Deep Predictor' transforms forecasting into a reproducible, standardized process accessible to all staff. In the second half, Persol X Technology will demonstrate how to use the no-code/low-code business improvement platform 'Pleasanter'—which the company supports in implementation—to centralize operational data such as inventory, shipments, transfers, and approvals, and build a customized operational foundation for inventory and procurement management.

The session will emphasize integrating AI forecasting with inventory management into a seamless workflow: 'Forecast → Inventory Gap Check → Site Adjustment → Order Only Shortages → Performance Review.' This integrated approach aims to simultaneously reduce both overstock and stockouts.
