Material Requirement Planning Analytics

The customer was facing a challenge with respect to determining which raw material needs replenishment and hence needs to be ordered, when to be ordered, in what quantity, and when the delivery of the order should be scheduled.

 

In addition, the customer also wanted information that would help it to identify what raw material items will create a production shortage, what raw material items in quarantine should be released and by when, and what raw material items should be called from the local warehouse in order to release it on time for the next production work order.
