A new technical solution developed to bridge the gap between demand forecasts and execution systems in the retail sector detects demand fluctuations and automates supplier ordering processes.

Architecture and Solution Approach

While traditional supply chain methods experience disconnects between forecasts and operational steps, the new integration transforms this process into a seamless cycle.

Forecast and Detection Phases

The Databricks Many Model Forecasting infrastructure successfully performs demand forecasts for the upcoming seven-day period for each stock keeping unit.

Decision and Execution Processes

The system matches detected demand fluctuations with up-to-date supplier data to determine the most cost-effective supplier and creates the order.
