Demand-Driven Replenishment Planning and Execution

Demand-driven replenishment (DD) helps you efficiently plan and manage supply chains based on customer demand, rather than through traditional MRP procedures. It forms the basis for a reliable material flow by defining buffers at strategically important points and adjusting these buffers regularly.

Dedicated apps provide views for replenishment planning and execution. With replenishment planning, an overview of the buffer information sorted by planning priority is shown. With this, you can trigger replenishment on time to avoid stock shortages and delays in the completion of production or sales orders due to insufficient stock. With replenishment execution, you can view the current stock situation for each product and check that sufficient on-hand stock is available for production. You can expedite replenishment directly, and by using readily available contact details, such as contacting the supplier of a purchase order or the production supervisor of the component production order.
