01 / Demand planning

Demand that lives in five spreadsheets isn’t demand planning.

Consumption history, project schedules, and stock positions resolve into one forecast per material, not per department.

Consumption history, project schedules, and stock positions usually live in three disconnected views, reconciled by hand before every forecast.

dmp resolves them into one forecast per material, keyed to the same registry sourcing and contracts already read from.

Key capabilities
  • AI Material Mastering: parses multi-language descriptions, including Russian and Azerbaijani, into structured specs
  • Automated Deduplication: merges duplicate SKUs across business units into one Golden Record
  • Consolidated CART Planning: requisitions built against engineering specs, not guesswork
  • Governed Change Requests: any edit to demand-critical data triggers a traceable, formal review
  • Multi-Role Approval Channels: sequential or parallel sign-off across roles, each with its own access level
Every capability, in detail

What this module actually does.

AI Material Mastering

Natural language processing parses messy, multi-language material descriptions, including English, Russian, and Azerbaijani, into structured technical specifications. An engineer types what they need in plain language; a Catalog Manager validates the structured output instead of researching and rewriting requests from scratch.

For MRO engineers and Catalog Managers

Automated SKU Deduplication

A continuous background process identifies duplicate entries hidden under different naming conventions across business units and merges them into one Golden Record, reducing redundant warehouse holding costs without a manual cross-reference audit.

For Inventory teams and finance controllers

Consolidated CART Planning

A governed portal ensures requisitions are built against engineering specifications (material grades, dimensions, RPM limits) rather than assumptions, removing the clarification back-and-forth between engineering and procurement.

For MRO engineers and Category Managers

Governed Change Requests

Any modification to demand-critical data triggers a formal, traceable review. No one can unilaterally alter a Golden Record without an approval workflow, which makes compliance audits close to instantaneous.

For Compliance teams and Catalog Managers

Multi-Role Approval Channels

A forecast one person can release is a forecast an auditor will question. dmp routes demand through configurable approval channels — technical validation, catalog governance, budget sign-off — with each role holding its own access level. Approvals run sequentially or in parallel, thresholds are set per category or value, and nothing reaches sourcing until every required sign-off is on the record.

For Category Managers, finance controllers, and compliance teams
FAQ

Direct answers.

No. dmp consolidates the inputs — consumption history, project schedules, stock positions — into one forecast per material. MRP and purchase order execution stay in your ERP.

Yes. Project schedules and recurring MRO demand are held in the same registry, so a buyer sees both against one material record instead of two disconnected views.

Yes. Approval channels are configurable per category and value threshold, so a requisition can require several sign-offs — technical, catalog, budget — from different roles, each with its own access level. Every approval is recorded against the request.
