The Replenishment Planning system marries the external Supply Chain Inventory with the Production / Procurement. Replenishment Planning allows the creation of a responsive system that reacts rapidly to the needs of the market, such systems ensure high degree of service levels with the customers while simultaneously maintaining low levels of inventory across the Supply Chain. After the Production plan gives the finished goods schedule which shows how the supply side inventory is likely to get built, the replenishment planning comes into picture. It takes into account the expected demand in the coming days/weeks, the current inventory in the various locations including in transit inventory, the supply side expected inventory from Production Plan / Purchase Orders. The trigger for Replenishment is through Stock Covers / Reorder Point levels, which considers parameters such as Safety Stock, Min / Max Inventory Levels, Lead Times, to arrive at an expected replenishment plan.
Features and Key Benefits
Model Details
- Statistical methods to dynamically and continuously calculate Reorder points at different levels of the Supply Chain
- Continuously checks the inventory against the Reorder Points
- Creates the Replenishment Plan Order considering Dispatch Frequency & Inventory Replenishment Strategy
- Such inventory from Factory / mother warehouse is dispatched to those depots/hubs that most need it
- In addition, the tool allows for categorization of different types of SKUs so that different Dispatch strategies can be adopted
Features
- Various options for movement of materials that gives flexibility to move SKUs
- Search options like location, stores, bins, pallets, etc.
- Material management logics like FIFO, weight, location, or any other custom logic built
- This Replenishment Plan is further consolidated / fragmented to consider sales considerations such as OTIF and logistics considerations such as FTL and Truck choices.
- The output of this exercise is a Dispatch Plan. It is possible to further create the Truck Loading Plan.
- In a Pull System, the Replenishment Plan can also trigger a requirement for the Production unit is connected to the Supply chain inventory through a factory buffer stock.
Benefits
- It allows both Push based as well as Pull based Inventory Planning.
- The tool allows various strategies for Replenishment as well as Replenishment at different echelons of the supply chain.
- Oversee complete flow of materials and products, right from your smartphone
- The product also allows rule-based truck loading/containerization based one or two fill parameters
- Eliminate countless hours of work on data entry, manual tasks, and more
