Ask me how many supply chains still treat every customer the same when inventory runs tight, and I’ll tell you it’s more than you’d think. Demand swings wildly, suppliers miss commitments, and customer expectations keep climbing—yet many organizations still rely on static allocation rules that ignore a fundamental truth: not all customers carry the same…
