Demand Driven MRP

Variability will always be there in our reality: unexpected events will continue to happen. Suppliers face issues, customers can change their minds, and delays will always accumulate. By placing decoupling stock buffers at strategic positions in your product structure with Demand Driven MRP, you can create independence between steps in the supply chain, reducing the variability and its effects by planning in shorter horizons. Make your inventory and supply planning easier and simpler.

With DDMRP, you will have clear visibility into whether you are using your inventory to its maximum potential—that is, using it as an asset to drive up ROI. In DDMRP, everybody in your company will easily recognize when you have too little inventory, risking not meeting customer demand, or too much, with cash and space tied up in non-useful inventory. Simple and easy to follow, everybody will push towards the same goal.

Det er nemt at udelukke specifikke bevægelser fra beregningen af de nødvendige lagerniveauer for et produkt. Dette kan være baseret på kriterier som f.eks. lokationer, specifikke lagerbevægelser eller salgsordrelinjer. Ved at filtrere usædvanlige eller uregelmæssige bevægelser fra kan du sikre, at lagerbeholdningen forbliver nøjagtig og upåvirket af atypisk aktivitet.

DDMRP stock buffers automatically adjust their size based on future expected demand. Forget about static, one-time-set values in reordering rules or safety stock in conventional planning.

Systemet logger sikkert alle ændringer, der foretages i konfigurationerne af DDMRP's genopfyldningssystem. Det sikrer, at lederne har et komplet revisionsspor, herunder detaljer om, hvilke ændringer der blev foretaget, hvornår de blev foretaget og af hvem. Denne gennemsigtighed hjælper med at opretholde kontrol, ansvarlighed og sporbarhed i systemjusteringer.

Systemet giver dig mulighed for at tage højde for forskellige kontraktlige krav, når du optimerer dine lagerbeholdninger. Du kan konfigurere parametre som f.eks. minimumslagerniveauer og minimumsordrecyklusser, som ofte fastsættes af leverandører. Ved at integrere disse begrænsninger fra den virkelige verden sikrer systemet, at lagerniveauerne optimeres i henhold til de specifikke betingelser for din virksomhed.

Safeguard your service levels and minimize stockouts, even under discontinuous demand conditions. Achieve this by introducing a dynamic factor into safety stock calculations and the order spike horizon. This factor is based on the average frequency of demand, ensuring that your inventory strategy adapts to fluctuations while maintaining optimal stock levels.

ForgeFlow Clouds DDMRP integreres ubesværet med underleverandørfunktioner, hvilket sikrer nøjagtig lagerplanlægning i outsourcede produktionsscenarier.

• Komponenter sendt til produktion
  Når produktionen udliciteres, tager systemet højde for:
  • Forsendelsestiden for underkomponenter til underleverandøren.
  • The lead time for non-stocked components.
  • Underleverandørens produktionstid.
  • Forsendelsestiden for det færdige produkt tilbage til din lokation.
• Komponenter på lager hos underleverandøren
  Hvis komponenter regelmæssigt sendes til og opbevares hos underleverandøren, skal lagerberegningerne kun tage hensyn til:
  • Underleverandørens produktionstid.
  • Forsendelsestiden for det færdige produkt tilbage til din lokation.

Denne omfattende tilgang sikrer præcise lagerberegninger, forbedrer effektiviteten og opretholder flowet i din forsyningskæde. supply chain.

Enable dynamic adjustments to inventory levels to prepare for planned or anticipated events. These adjustments can be applied in two key areas:

Lead Time: Modify the lead time for individual parts or groups of parts (e.g., similar products or those linked to the same supplier) to account for planned or expected changes, such as extended lead times during specific periods.

Demand: Adjust demand projections, which will automatically propagate changes through the Bill of Materials (BoM), ensuring all dependent components are updated accordingly.

Denne funktion sikrer en mere præcis lagerplanlægning og hjælper dig med proaktivt at styre variationer i udbud og efterspørgsel.

When replacing a product—such as upgrading to a newer version—ForgeFlow Cloud ERP provides a dedicated tool with two flexible options:

Create a New Replenishment System
Set up a fresh replenishment system for the new product without carrying over demand, lead times, or consumption history from the original product.

Replace a Product in an Existing Replenishment System
Swap the old product with its replacement while retaining demand, lead times, and consumption history. This ensures a smooth transition and maintains inventory continuity

By using the Net Flow Position (NFP)Ved at bruge Net Flow Position (NFP), et unikt træk ved DDMRP-metoden, vil du være i stand til at drive ordregenerering med faktiske salgsordrer. Ikke flere MPS-prognoser, der tvinger dig til at opbygge og akkumulere lagre i et andet tempo end det, markedet virkelig ønsker.

Stay informed with warnings about stock settings based on various criteria. By default, the system includes warnings for common misconfigurations, such as zero demand forecasts or future peak control periods shorter than the decoupled lead time. In addition, you can create customized warnings tailored to your specific environment to help you avoid potential problems caused by mistakes and oversights.

Assisted by the system you will be able to generate the most efficient resupply orders in terms of demand coverage while also being restricted by different group constraints like filling trucks, reaching minimum order amounts, respecting transportation units, weight, volume, etc. Få mereat vide.

The system changes the paradigm of prioritization and shifts the focus to protecting the flow of relevant materials instead of focusing on deadlines. For example, production orders are sorted by Net Flow Position (NFP) by default. It also displays the execution priority in the work orders and the planning priority in production orders, promoting the protection of flow in your organization.

Konfigurer nemt følgende kalendere for at forbedre lagerstyringen:

Indkøbskalender: Begrænser anbefalede indkøb til bestemte dage, hvilket sikrer tilpasning til interne planlægningsplaner.

Modtagelseskalender: Justerer anbefalede datoer for at planlægge lagermodtagelser i overensstemmelse med denne kalender, hvilket forbedrer driftseffektiviteten.

Leverandørkalender: For indkøbte varer bruges hovedleverandørens kalender til at tilpasse indkøb til leverandørens tilgængelighed og leveringstider. lead times.

These calendars provide flexibility and precision in managing stock buffers while ensuring processes adhere to operational constraints.

Stay on top of your inventory and supply chain with various execution alerts:

Projected On-Hand Alerts: Monitor actual inventory levels and receive warnings when stock levels are at risk of running out, ensuring you avoid stockouts.

Materialesynkroniseringsadvarsler: Få besked, når en identificeret forsinkelse i modtagelsen af en komponent gør det umuligt at opfylde en produktionsordre i sin helhed, så du kan løse problemer, før produktionen påvirkes.

Lead Time Alerts: Track key items that are not in stock but could disrupt the supply chain if their lead times are delayed, helping you to proactively manage critical supplies.

Disse advarsler er med til at sikre, at dine operationer kører problemfrit, og reducerer risikoen for afbrydelser i din forsyningskæde.

Udnyt Parts Flow Index Report to measure the velocity of parts for which inventory is held. This tool compares order frequencies across multiple products to evaluate how quickly materials and products move through the supply chain, supported by strategically placed inventory.

Produkter med et højt antal dage mellem genbestillingshændelser indikerer overskydende lagerbeholdning, der ikke længere bidrager til flowbeskyttelse og i stedet bliver en belastning for organisationen. Brug denne rapport til at identificere og håndtere ineffektivitet og sikre, at lagerbeholdningen stemmer overens med de operationelle behov.

Maintain a comprehensive record of buffer Oprethold en omfattende oversigt over bufferhistorikken, så lagercheferne får adgang til detaljerede historiske DDMRP-data. Dette omfatter udviklingen af lagerniveauer og deres tilpasning til efterspørgslen. Derudover kan du se historiske trenddiagrammer for ethvert produkts lagerposition fra både planlægnings- og udførelsesperspektiver. Denne funktion muliggør dybdegående analyser og bedre beslutningstagning baseret på tidligere resultater.

Udnyt stærke, indsigtsfulde rapporter til at optimere din virksomheds processer og måle effektiviteten af lagerstyring:
