Legacy MRP plans in cycles—your customers move in real time
Legacy MRP
Relies on outdated forecasts
Planners make decisions based on stale demand predictions, not real-time signals.
Static priorities lead to daily firefighting
Teams scramble to react when plans break down, chasing shortages and expediting orders.
Leads to bloated or missing inventory
You carry excess in one location and stock out in another, tying up capital and missing sales.
Intuiflow materials planning
Plans with actual demand
Live sales order signals trigger replenishment so inventory moves in sync with real consumption.
Surfaces the right priorities fast
AI-driven buffers and smart alerts show what matters most.
Positions inventory where it drives flow
Inventory buffers adapt to changes and optimize placement across your supply network.
You’ve seen the difference. Now experience it.

Inventory Positioning
Put your inventory where it drives flow, not friction
Use real demand to position inventory exactly where it’s needed. Intuiflow’s AI buffers detect consumption shifts early and surface clear priorities to keep your planners focused on what matters most.
See materials under pressure, act on smarter recommendations, and keep flow moving with a Demand Driven model.
-
LEAD TIME MANAGEMENT
Shrink lead times, cut excess, and respond faster
Adjust planning horizons in real time based on current inventory and actual conditions, not assumptions. You'll know exactly where to place inventory to reduce delays, compress cycles, and prevent the Bullwhip Effect before it starts.
Achieve true responsiveness, shorter lead times, and a supply chain that keeps moving.
-
ORDER MANAGEMENT
Automate smarter orders and move materials with purpose
Get daily, intuitive recommendations that tell you exactly what to order, when, and why, so materials keep moving without delays or shortages.
Smarter orders respect real-world constraints like shipping limits and bay capacity, helping you avoid overload, cut waste, and use every shipment to its full potential, even under pressure.
-
DISTRIBUTION PLANNING
Put the right inventory where it performs
Stay ahead of shifting demand and make sure every warehouse, DC, or retail site is ready when it matters most. Intuiflow uses real consumption signals to place inventory precisely, eliminating emergency transfers, bloated shelves, and stockouts.
Deploy inventory where it’s needed most and ensure smooth, responsive flow across peak seasons, promotions, and product launches.
-
LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT
Stay lean across every phase without the write-offs
Keep materials flowing through every lifecycle stage and avoid bloated buffers and costly excess.
With linked SKUs, automated start/end dates, and demand-driven replenishment, you’ll stay responsive to change, minimize manual tracking, and keep inventory lean, even when the plan shifts.
Partnering with Intuiflow has given me firsthand insight into how integrated manufacturing and demand-driven planning can work together to elevate supply chain performance and responsiveness.

Intuiflow’s materials planning FAQs
What is demand-driven materials planning?
Demand-driven materials planning uses actual sales and consumption data, not forecasts, to trigger replenishment. It reduces stockouts and excess by aligning inventory with real-time market needs.
How does Intuiflow reduce excess inventory without causing stockouts?
Intuiflow dynamically adjusts inventory buffers based on service goals and true demand. This keeps stock lean while ensuring availability where and when it’s needed.
Can Intuiflow support complex BOMs or engineer-to-order manufacturing?
Yes. Intuiflow decouples bills of materials at key points and manages non-stocked parts visually, making it ideal for engineer-to-order and high-variation production environments.
How does Intuiflow simplify daily order management?
Intuiflow provides intuitive, prioritized order recommendations that consider constraints like container space and order minimums, no spreadsheets required.
What role does AI/ML play in Intuiflow’s materials planning?
AI and machine learning in Intuiflow detect demand patterns, fine-tune inventory levels, and automate repetitive planning tasks, improving speed and accuracy.
How does Intuiflow help reduce lead times?
By positioning inventory closer to demand and shortening planning cycles, Intuiflow makes your supply chain more responsive and reduces overall lead times.
Does Intuiflow integrate with ERP systems?
Yes. Intuiflow integrates with all major ERPs, including SAP, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, and Oracle, to enhance planning without replacing your system.
How does Intuiflow improve distribution planning?
It gives real-time visibility across your network and uses prioritized share logic to send the right inventory to the right place, reducing transfers and outages.
Can Intuiflow manage product lifecycles and phase-outs?
Yes. Intuiflow links related SKUs and automates lifecycle transitions to prevent overordering, reduce waste, and simplify new product introductions.
Who is Intuiflow’s demand-driven materials planning built for?
Intuiflow’s demand-driven materials planning is purpose-built for supply chain teams in automotive, aerospace, industrial, food & beverage, and healthcare manufacturing. It’s ideal for companies facing volatility, long lead times, regulatory constraints, or unpredictable customer demand. Intuiflow gives you the agility and control to align supply with real-world consumption without relying on outdated forecasts or spreadsheet firefighting.
