What DIO is

Days Inventory Outstanding (DIO) = (average inventory / cost of goods sold) × 365. It shows how many days, on average, a product sits in the warehouse before selling. It's the days-equivalent of inventory turnover.

Why it matters to the board

DIO is the operational component of the Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC). The lower the DIO, the less cash stays locked in stock. It's operations' direct lever on working capital.

Συχνές ερωτήσεις

DIO vs inventory turnover?+

They are the same information expressed differently: turnover = how many times stock rotates per year; DIO = how many days it sits. DIO = 365 / turnover.

How do I reduce DIO without stockouts?+

Through accurate forecasting and a calibrated reorder point, not blind under-stocking. The goal is less dead stock, not less availability.
