Inventory control management is considered a fundamental tool for the management of a company, since it allows processes to be managed efficiently. With less resources and more savings. This study aims to: identify and model the inventory control processes that already exist in the company, analyze the inventory that already exists in the company, describe the methodology for inventory control and propose actions of the methodology that allow corrections of inventory activities already identified. The goal is to propose a methodology for optimizing stock control that is able to define how much and when to buy products. The materials and methods applied in the execution of the work were divided into the following four stages: data collection, process mapping, analysis of improvement opportunities, research design, as well as guidelines for the application of the case study and implementation of the proposal for improvements. The results achieved allowed for the implementation of the methodology, where a 30% reduction in the problems of non-attendance was allowed. Also as a contribution were the goals to be achieved as positive factors such as lean inventory, improvements to efficient customer service, increased capital turnover and increased company profits.
