Optimisation of stock quantities

Optimise your stock effectively with our solution. Through our AI-based optimisation, you receive recommendations on the ideal stock quantity per product. This not only reduces out-of-stock situations, but also minimises storage costs. The individual purchasing conditions per supplier are taken into account and the optimisation takes place in two steps: First, the demand per product is forecast, then a specialised optimisation algorithm is used that takes all relevant conditions into account to find the optimum. The main benefits? Reduced storage costs, fewer sell-out situations and increased turnover as well as customer satisfaction.

Optimisation of the supply chain

Optimise your supply chain seamlessly and efficiently by combining Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) and logistics management. GNNs are masters at capturing complex relationships in networked systems, making them ideal for modelling dynamic, multi-node logistics systems. Your global distribution network is represented as a graph, with each node symbolising a location (e.g. warehouse, distribution centre, port) and the edges representing transport routes. By analysing this networked system, dependencies are captured that facilitate data-driven decisions. Using historical demand data, our solution forecasts future demand trends using GNNs. These insights guide the optimisation of transport routes, ensuring efficient resource allocation while minimising costs.
