Actively Pursued by:
Enables partners to share key supply chain data, such as inventory levels, material demand, delivery forecasts, and production capacities, over a short time horizon. This allows for rapid detection of disruptions, proactive adjustments, and increased stability in dynamic supply chains.
The core is the exchange of supply chain key information between partners within a horizon of up to four weeks, including:
• Item Stock: Visibility of current inventory levels on both sides
• Short-term Material Demand: Forecast of materials needed for production
• Planned Production Output: Anticipated production output quantities
• Delivery Information: Scheduled and actual deliveries and their details
• Days of Supply: Information on how long the inventory on hand will last
Key Features
- Up to 4-week forward visibility
- Real-time data on stock and demand
- Early detection of supply risks
• Proactive rather than reactive: Early warnings enable preventive measures before production stoppages occur
• Reduced manual effort: Automated data collection and provision shorten the "Time to Action"
• Network transparency: All parties work based on a shared, current view of the supply situation
• Standardized IT and business processes: Replacement of proprietary solutions with interoperable, Catena-X-compliant standards
• Better solution space: Earlier and better informed, alternative scenarios (redisposition, capacity adjustment, prioritization) can be examined more efficiently and sustainably IAV Puris supports digital collaboration within the supply network, enhances supply security, and makes bottleneck management faster, more transparent, and scalable.
