Planning & Optimization

Integrated Supply Chain Planning Platform - TXTPLAN

TXTPLAN is a complete planning platform. It provides integrated planning of production, procurement, distribution, replenishment and inventory, in both complex and spread out environments.

In a context where outsourcing and delocalization are ever more frequent, TXTPLAN increases the efficiency of business processes and improves visibility over the whole Supply Chain, whilst making it more agile.

Functions

• Production Planning: supports demand planning with respect to existing constraints in terms of capacity, resources and materials. Through an approach that involves algorithms and simulations, the planner can produce a feasible and optimized production plan.
• Procurement Planning: proposes a procurement plan synchronized with the production plan. It supports the planner in the selection of the most suitable supplier and allows for a reduction in purchasing times and total costs.
• Distribution Planning: supports the planning of material flows all along the distribution network, thus helping the planner define which products to allocate to which distribution centers.
• Replenishment Planning: generates replenishment plans for points of sale and secondary warehouses. It elaborates on requests to the distribution centers, focusing on dates and optimal quantities.
• Inventory Planning & Optimization: determines stock management parameters such as safety stock levels.
