Production capacity:
What is the capacity gap in each plant/shop?
Which processes have capacity surpluses?
Materials:
How much material needs to be kept on hand and what are the material gaps?
Are alternative materials available?
Data required for planning is often scattered in different places
Information sharing between departments is difficult, making it difficult to reach a consensus on supply-demand balance
The supply chain's visibility is weak, making it difficult for decision-makers to quickly grasp the overall situation of demand, supply, and production capacity
The supply chain is complex
There are numerous upstream and downstream supply nodes
It is difficult to balance the demand and supply of each node
The demand can only be passed layer by layer from the finished product end to the raw material end
Traditional methods are difficult to balance the requirements of multiple objectives and constraints, such as production capacity utilization, inventory level, service level, and cost, for the main planning
There may be conflicts in the indicators of supply chain planning
It's difficult to analyze the impact of each indicator on the main plan
It's difficult to try adjustments to the weights of different indicators
Prepare production in advance to balance the demand and supply of each
Let the limited production capacity meet the most important customer demand!
Prepare materials in advance under controllable obsolescence risk
Shorten the delivery cycle
and enhance market competitiveness!
Advance production under controllable cost
Flatten the production peak and valley, stabilize
production, and reduce costs!
Strengthen supply chain collaboration
Align each node of the supply chain to act towards
consistent goals!
Construct a complete model that includes all nodes in the enterprise's supply chain, considering the supply capacity limitations of each node, to achieve supply-demand balance throughout the entire chain
1Achieve global optimized master plan calculation considering multiple optimization objectives and constraints, such as demand, production capacity, and materials
2Able to simulate and output plans under different optimization objectives and strategies, use data-driven root cause analysis and what-if analysis to avoid subjective judgments
3Use real-time KPI for decision-making, avoid one-sidedness caused by subjective experience
4Monitor progress of master plan execution and any anomalies in demand, supply, and capacity. Promptly respond to anomalies and adjust master plan accordingly
5Achieve end-to-end collaboration through the supply chain process. Ensure that the flow of supply chain information related to demand, supply, inventory, production capacity, and planning is visible and integrated
