Supply Chain Planning applications identify the right supply of materials to the right place, at the right time, at the lowest cost. The supposed optimization algorithms match product demand with supply to determine the most cost effective method to fulfill the requirements. The plan may recommend transfers of supply from other inventory locations, new purchases from suppliers, and the production of new products to meet the demand. If products must be produced, the planning application may also recommend the appropriate manufacturing sequence. Often, these recommended plans are altered to fit the conditions “on the floor.” These deviations cause the performance-against-plan to deteriorate and in extreme cases, make the plan unusable. To mitigate this problem, PeopleSoft has developed Supply Chain Planning Mart to provide visibility into the compliance of the plan to the actual transfer, purchase, or production. Supply Chain Planning Mart enables you to analyze the deviation from the recommended plan to actual order fulfillment, purchasing, production, inter unit transfers, inventory levels, and capacity utilization.
Supply Chain Planning Mart helps you answer questions such as:
How much has the plan changed from actual execution?
Which products are most out of compliance?
Which business units change the plan the most often?
Supply Chain Planning Mart supports the Production business process, which is also known as the Plan to Produce business process.
