Why Intelligent Order Promising
In the next 5 to 20 years, technology will allow supply chains to go from being an end-to-end efficient linear machine, where if one thing stops the whole thing stops, to an ecosystem with an incredible amount of data and AI-driven predictability. But today supply chains are in a constant state of flux and struggle. Recent research shows that only 23% of consumer product organizations believe that their supply chain is agile enough to support evolving business needs.
Intelligent Order Promising (IOP) provides immediate, sustainable value by applying AI to near-term consumption sensing data. Guided by pre-determined business objectives, IOP improves Available to Promise, lowers OTIF penalties, and keeps retailer partners happy.
