FUNCTION · SUPPLY CHAIN & LOGISTICS

Planners override the forecast.
The system learns nothing.

IBP, Blue Yonder, Manhattan, Oracle SCM — every planning decision inside a vendor model your team cannot tune. You do not have to start by replacing it. Start with the exception your planners chase by hand every day.

  • You own the code from commit one
  • No per-node or per-planner fee
  • Every plan you can interrogate

Why this domain exists

Your planners carry the judgement.
The model they work in is not theirs.

Supply chain software is bought to encode an operator's expertise and then priced so that using it more costs more. Three forces, none accidental.

Supply chain is where an operator's judgement lives, and where the software understands the least about the network it is planning. SAP IBP, Oracle SCM Cloud, Blue Yonder, Manhattan Active, SAP EWM and TM, Kinaxis — each priced per node or per planner, each with a model your team cannot open.

The model does not open

A forecast arrives with a number and no way in. Your planners can override it but cannot tune what produced it, so the expertise stays in their heads instead of in the system.

Priced per node, per planner

The bill follows the network. Every distribution centre, every lane and every planner you add is another line item, which is a charge on exactly the growth the software was bought to support.

One chain, six vendors

Demand, inventory, warehouse, transport, supplier management and the reporting layer arrive from different vendors on different cycles, and the integration between them is yours to maintain.

STAGE 01Ignite

Start with something your planners have been asking for.

New agents beside the planning and execution systems you already run. Nothing retired, nothing migrated — every vendor module keeps doing what it does today. Confidence starts here, in weeks.

Exception agent

Watches orders, shipments and stock signals across the systems you already run and drafts the intervention before the delay lands.

Reads your existing order, shipment and stock systems

Supplier-response agent

Turns supplier emails and portal updates into one queue, with replies drafted on your terms.

Runs beside the supplier channels you already operate

STAGE 02Reforge

The estate you already own, rebuilt AI-native.

Warehouse execution, supplier management and the visibility layer: built around your floor, your lanes, your master data. Same logic, modern substrate, every decision traceable — every line yours.

IN — what you run today
  • Demand planning module
  • Inventory optimisation
  • Warehouse management

Product categories are the ones you already run. What comes out the other side is yours — source, models, data and pipeline, transferred on commit one.

Warehouse execution rebuild

Inbound, putaway, picking, packing and outbound rebuilt against your own floor layout, your devices and your master data, rather than against a product designed for a warehouse that is not yours.

Rebuilt against your own floor layout and master data

Supplier and contract-logistics rebuild

Supplier onboarding, performance scorecards and third-party logistics orchestration as one workflow your sourcing team owns, instead of one portal per major supplier.

Consolidates the supplier records spread across your portals

Visibility ledger

Demand-supply balance, delivery performance, working capital and cost to serve read directly from your own systems, so the numbers your team already tracks stop arriving through a licensed reporting module.

Built across the supply-chain systems you already operate

Coverage

Six areas. The same pattern in each.

Wherever the network is densest is where the per-node licence bites hardest. These are the areas we work in, and what sits inside each.

Demand planning
  • Statistical baselines against your own sales history
  • Promotional calendar and external signals you already hold
  • Forecasts your planners can interrogate and override
Inventory & allocation
  • Multi-echelon stock policy as data your planners edit
  • Allocation and replenishment written back on approval
  • Cover targets set by you rather than by a licensed default
Warehouse execution
  • Inbound, putaway, picking, packing and outbound
  • Built against your floor layout and your devices
  • Master data reconciled once, in a record you own
Transport orchestration
  • Routing and load building tuned to your lanes and fleet
  • Carrier selection on your own commercial terms
  • Freight audit as an owned calculation
Supplier management
  • Onboarding and master data in one owned record
  • Performance scorecards on criteria your sourcing team sets
  • Third-party logistics orchestration as your own workflow
S&OP & visibility
  • Demand-supply balance read from your systems of record
  • Delivery performance and cost to serve in one place
  • Working capital visible without a reporting licence
Platforms this domain replaces
STAGE 03Liberate

The planning module comes out. The network keeps moving.

Liberation is earned, not sold. By the time we replace a module your planners depend on, they have watched us build. Then the per-node licence stops pricing new distribution centres.

The licence ledger

Illustrative

The commercial shape of a supply-chain stack, as a buyer reads it

Basis of charge
Per node, per planner, per module. The network you exist to grow and the people who run it are the two things on the invoice.
Growth condition
New sites, lanes and planners are additive across every module at once. Consolidation rarely removes the same lines before the term ends.
Model opacity
The forecasting and optimisation artefacts are licensed, not transferred. Tuning them to your network sits outside what the contract covers.
On exit
Stock policies, lane definitions and floor layouts sit inside the vendors' schemas — not in an asset you hold.
Cost of staying————

Shape only — the direction of travel, not a quantity. Your own curve comes from your own renewal schedule.

Illustrative. This is our reading of a commercial pattern common to supply-chain software, not a quotation from any vendor agreement — no contract text, no clause references, no figures.

Owned demand-planning engine

Forecasting built on your own sales history, promotional calendar and external signals, as a pipeline your planners edit rather than a model they can only override.

SAP IBP · Blue Yonder Demand · Kinaxis

Owned inventory and allocation

Multi-echelon stock policy, allocation and replenishment as data your planners hold, written back to the network when they approve it.

SAP IBP Inventory · Blue Yonder Fulfillment

Owned execution layer

Warehouse and transport execution rebuilt on your own floor, lanes and fleet, so the cost of running the network stops scaling with the size of the network.

How it is built

Glass-walled from brief to transfer. Nothing behind a black box.

SAIF is our delivery method and it runs in the open. You watch the build as it happens, read the evals that gate every release, and keep every artefact — including the ones that record what did not work.

  1. 01

    Brief

    One workflow, scoped against your own data and your own renewal position.

  2. 02

    Build

    Agentic delivery against your systems, visible while it runs.

  3. 03

    Evals

    Every release gated on tests you can read and re-run yourself.

  4. 04

    Deploy

    Into infrastructure you control, alongside the system it stands beside.

  5. 05

    Transfer

    Your team runs it. We do not leave until they can.

You own it from commit one

Source, models, prompts, evals and pipeline. Not a licence to use what we built — the asset itself.

Two weeks to a working build

A working build against your own systems in two weeks. Fixed scope, fixed bill.

It runs beside the planning module first

Nothing is retired on faith. The planning module goes when the replacement is carrying the work.

Our commitment

Every engagement starts with a scoped working build against your own systems. If it doesn't convince you, you pay nothing — and you keep the code either way.

The ask

Bring one contract and its renewal date.

Ten working days. Which capability to build first, what the next renewal actually costs, and what owning the replacement takes. You keep the analysis.
