Supply Chain
Fill Rate
Percentage of customer demand fulfilled immediately from available stock without backorder or lost sale.
Examples
- 01The fill rate for spare parts is 94 %: 94 of every 100 order lines are shipped straight from stock.
- 02In the monthly review, the fill rate of the spare-parts business is split by warehouse, which shows that the export hub ships only 86 % of lines from stock.
- 03When fill rate drops below 90 % for a product group, planning checks reorder points and safety stock.
