COVID-19 has created significant strains on the global supply chain and has made predicting demand more challenging. Demand volatility creates uncertainty, forcing organizations to take more care in planning their inventory and allocating supply. 

Many organizations use SAP to manage their supply chain and logistics, yet its out-of-the-box solution lacks key features for allocation and order management in a single user cockpit. 

The Challenge

Organizations must make quick, informed decisions on a number of key topics, to avoid out of stock issues and alienating their most profitable customers.

• Manually allocating supply to orders is not manageable
• Ability to check against actual supply during the order placement process is limited
• Lack of profitability and customer prioritization strategies for calculating allocation quantities
