Demand & inventory planning

Turn operating data into a clearer demand and purchasing plan

Satianix Planning turns product history, inventory and supply inputs into a structured planning view for demand, stock risk and draft purchasing decisions. Compare planning horizons, review exceptions and export management-ready outputs from one workspace.

See the plan before the operational decision

Planning teams need more than a forecast number. They need to understand inventory exposure, upcoming shortages, purchase timing and the assumptions behind each recommendation. Satianix Planning puts those questions into one repeatable workflow.

Core capabilities

Demand forecasting

Review product-by-month demand over 3, 6 or 12 months and compare actual history with the active forecast horizon.

Product intelligence

Review availability, inbound inventory, history coverage and supply or expiry exceptions at product level instead of treating the portfolio as one average.

Purchase planning

Generate draft purchase quantities and timing using the planning model, including supply inputs such as lead time, safety buffer, MOQ and case-pack constraints where available.

Stock & expiry risk

Surface projected shortage, overstock, no-history and expiry exposure so exceptions can be reviewed before a purchase decision is committed.

Reports & scheduled delivery

Create PDF and Excel outputs for Executive Summary, Demand Forecast, Purchase Plan, Stock Risk and Expiry Risk. Scheduled reporting is supported for recurring management delivery.

Planning assistant

Ask questions about the active planning facts and receive explanations grounded in the current dataset and selected planning context. The assistant explains the plan; it does not place orders or change settings.

Bring in data, verify the snapshot, then plan from one version of the truth

Import structured data, review it in the Data Sources area and verify the planning snapshot before generating forecasts and purchase plans.

Decision support, not automatic purchasing

Forecasts are estimates and purchase outputs are drafts for review. Satianix Planning does not automatically place purchase orders or guarantee future demand. The planning engine calculates the numbers; the assistant explains the available planning facts.

Who it is for

Move from forecast visibility to an operating decision with fewer blind spots

Satianix Planning is designed to make demand, inventory exposure and purchase assumptions visible in one place, so the team can review the same planning snapshot before committing operationally.
