Our Solutions for Industrial Manufacturing Companies
numi creates precise forecasts for all types of items, including components and raw materials. These forecasts are then converted into optimal replenishment and production proposals, taking logistics optimizations and production restrictions into account. In addition, numi provides industrial companies with a digital interface for supplier relationships, which can be accessed via a separate supplier portal.
Inventory Optimization
numi optimizes your inventory strategy and inventory and planning parameters based on individual targets. The results are fed back seamlessly and without manual effort directly into your ERP system, such as SAP.
- •Multidimensional inventory segmentation and optimization
- •Optimized replenishment and planning parameters
- •Dynamic calculation and seamless back-integration into ERP systems
Integrated Supplier Portal
Notify suppliers of delays or quality problems in an integrated way via our supplier portal.
- •Digital interface via our supplier portall
- •Proactive purchasing plans and comparison with target agreements
- •Performace Monitoring of Supplier
Missing Parts Analysis
Proactively identify missing purchasing and production parts to determine all impacted production orders and revenue risks.
- •Identification of missing parts for the coming weeks and months
- •Prioritization based on the affected production orders and revenue
- •Integrated escalation to suppliers, production or sales
Proactive Operational Planning
By taking AI-enabled forecasts and current stock levels into account, numi automatically generates replenishment and production recommendations for each of your items over the entire planning horizon. After verification, the orders can be transferred to any ERP system.
- •AI-enabled forecasts for multiple locations and channels
- •Logistics-optimized replenishment proposals in the right quantity and at the right time across multiple warehouses
- •Creation of production orders taking into account a wide range of constraints
Proactive Supply Chains
From reactive to data-driven supply chain collaboration and inventory optimization
