What is Material Planner?
Material Planner helps manufacturers optimise inventory and synchronise material availability with production schedules. By improving visibility of material requirements, it supports more accurate forecasting, better supplier coordination and more effective replenishment. The result is greater control over inventory, fewer material shortages and reduced excess stock. It helps ensure the right materials are available when production needs them.
