it costs your business money to have inventory lying around. Money tied up in inventory sitting on your shelves represents funds that you don't have conveniently available for expenses such as rent and payroll. In general, the less time it takes for you to turn over your inventory, the fewer cash flow hassles you will encounter. Reducing the average age of inventory involves having and accurate sense of what your customers will likely buy, as well as the rhythm of their purchases, such as whether your store tends to be busier during a particular season.

Actually , there is many points working together  to reduce aging stock , like improving the supply chain and reducing the supplier lead time , also improving forecast accuracy and utilizing inter-changeability  between parts we have. Of course parts ordering accuracy is the most important point.
