Use case · solution pattern, not a customer claim
Planners maintain safety stocks in spreadsheets because ERP consumption history, asset criticality, and supplier lead times are not connected. Equivalent parts may use several material numbers.
Data landscape
The first step is not a new platform for its own sake. It creates traceable access to the sources that shape the process today.
SAP MM or PM, Microsoft Dynamics, proALPHA, warehouse management, CMMS, bills of materials, asset registers, supplier master data, consumption history, and Excel.
First project scope
One warehouse or spare-parts class is enough. Recommendations appear in a dashboard and do not trigger automatic orders. Historical simulations support professional assessment.
Constrain
Select one warehouse, one spare-parts class, or one defined asset group.
Connect
Bring consumption, lead time, stock, bill of materials, and asset criticality together.
Review
Review recommendations with maintenance, planning, and procurement.
Observe impact
Observe stock coverage, shortages, expedited procurement, and planning effort.
The honest objection
The dependable response
Criticality is captured with maintenance as an explicit business rule. A consumption forecast alone must not reduce safety stock for a critical asset.
Conditions
A sound starting point needs clear data, accountability, and boundaries. Missing conditions are made visible rather than hidden.
When personal data is processed, requirements include purpose limitation, data minimisation, access protection, and deletion rules. Works councils and data protection stakeholders should be involved early where the specific use requires it.
Personal accountability

The technical background spans data engineering and platform architecture through enterprise search and responsibly integrated AI systems. The assessment remains grounded in your process and system landscape.
Free initial assessment
We frame consumption data, criticality rules, and a testable recommendation process.
The initial consultation and joint use-case discovery are free and non-binding.
Sensor values, faults, and maintenance orders are separate. Rare or poorly labelled failures make a dependable condition view difficult.
Contracts, amendments, and filings are distributed. Relevant clauses sit in full text while search and deadline lists depend on file names.
Property, lease, energy, and invoice data use different identifiers. Reports are assembled manually and anomalies surface late.
