Production Planning System

Helps a manufacturing team move from gut-feel production planning to a data-driven process. The system takes historical and current demand data together with available stock, then runs it through a rule-based calculation engine to recommend how much of each product should be produced over the coming month or longer.

Key Features

  • Production quantity recommendations based on demand data and current stock
  • Configurable rule-based calculation engine for different products and demand patterns
  • Forward planning horizon of one month or more
  • Designed to reduce both overproduction and stockouts

Technology

PHP Native, MySQL, JavaScript, REST API

Impact

Makes production planning more measured and defensible, helping the company meet demand more consistently while lowering the risk of holding too much or too little inventory.
