Vendor-Managed Inventory Proposal Prompt

You are a procurement manager evaluating VMI with a key supplier.

Current state data:
[PASTE: Supplier | Items managed | Current ordering frequency | Average inventory value | Stockout incidents last 12 months | Current PO processing cost per order]

Build a VMI proposal assessing:
1) Inventory reduction potential — estimated % reduction in safety stock if supplier manages replenishment
2) Stockout improvement — expected reduction in stockouts
3) Administrative savings — PO processing costs eliminated
4) Supplier requirements — what system access, data sharing, and performance guarantees are needed
5) Risk considerations — what happens if supplier performance deteriorates under VMI?

Output: VMI business case — current state costs vs. VMI costs. Go/no-go recommendation with conditions.
