Datacraft Solutions’ Customer Demand Management (CDM) is a real time system that integrates customer orders with finished goods. CDM supports ‘ship from stock’ and/or ‘produce to demand’ replenishment methods, accepting order signals in multiple forms — Kanban, VMI consumption, POS data, or EDI, providing a “Seller Managed” Kanban process. Regardless of the form of communication, CDM generates discrete signals for fulfillment of customers’ consumption. According to CEO Stephen Parker, “By providing visibility into customer inventory levels and real-time orders, CDM enables suppliers to much more accurately predict their customer's requirements which allows them to lower their finished goods inventories while still improving on-time delivery performance.”
Datacraft Solutions, the world leader in lean manufacturing software, noted that its flagship product, Signum Digital Kanban, is designed to help manufacturers reduce inventory by up to 75% while eliminating stock-outs. Only true digital kanban solution allows shop floor operators to manage and track all material as well as components that are sent to outside processors. This critical product feature allows manufacturers to achieve additional inventory reduction and fewer stock-outs, using a single integrated set of material replenishment processes for all products.
Key benefit areas of the Datacraft Solutions’ Customer Demand Management include:
• Improved customer on-time delivery performance
• Improved customer retention through improved service and automated re-ordering
• Improved planning and reduced finished goods inventory through real-time visibility into customer consumption and inventory data
• Shorten the order delivery cycle
• Provide planners with pipeline visibility instead of just periodic forecasts
