Inventory alerts and replenishment advice from ERP data

Customer need

Inventory data was out of sync between ERP and WMS, causing both stock-outs and overstock. The customer needed actionable replenishment advice, not another report.

Delivery

  • Scenario assessment: focused on high-frequency material stock-out warning
  • Plan compilation: compiled replenishment rules, thresholds and exception reasons into skills and an evaluation set
  • Real delivery: connected ERP/WMS data sources and ran inside a Harness workspace
  • Acceptance: evaluated against agreed warning accuracy and explanation completeness, then produced a value report

Outcome

  • Early warnings for high-frequency materials with replenishment quantities
  • Readable exception explanations (sales spikes, late arrivals, etc.)
  • Scope and acceptance criteria fixed during planning
