What the engine saysPlain English first, the arithmetic underneath
MSC East — Brentwood holds 2 free, which is 14 days of cover against a forecast of 0.1 a day. Tennant UK Cleaning Solutions needs 10 days and class A carries 7 days of safety stock, so the target position is 3 units. Neither depot has spare cover, so buy 1 from Tennant UK Cleaning Solutions.
Do nothing and MSC East — Brentwood runs out on 10/09/2026, which is 14 days. Tennant UK Cleaning Solutions needs 10 days to deliver. That is about £7,207 of sales at risk on this line alone.

Cover against lead timeFree stock running down, day by day
The blue line is free stock falling at the forecast rate. The dashed marker is the earliest a supplier delivery could land. Where the line reaches zero first, the depot is short and no amount of ordering on the day it happens will fix it.
