The reliable spine
The reliable spine is non-AI workflow, arithmetic, integrations, approvals and reporting for Forecasting and planning sanity layer.
Leather & Footwear
Forecasting and planning sanity layer
Planning runs on one person's memory and a stale spreadsheet; the plant over-stocks slow leather and components, runs short on fast ones, and cannot see the working capital trapped in either until it hurts. Hide and chemical buying against seasonal price swings is a gut call.
Who has it
Defining for footwear makers and exporters (order-book and material planning); leather goods and accessories makers and components and job-work units for demand and stock; tanneries for hide and chemical buying against seasonality.
What we build
A read-only layer over the order and style book, sales history and material needs showing demand patterns, forecast-vs-actual gaps, slow-moving leather and components, stock-out risk on key styles, and the working capital tied in each.
What is automated, where AI helps, who signs off
Automation for the routine. A person on every decision that matters.
Where AI helps
AI is limited to bounded reading, extraction, matching, clustering or drafting from the firm's own data for Forecasting and planning sanity layer; it never owns the number, the approval, the promise or the decision.
Who signs off
A named person signs off anything touching money, stock, a customer promise, a regulated filing, a payment, a price, a credit decision or a people decision.
What changes day to day
Planning starts from a shared, current picture; slow leather stock and stock-out risk become visible early; working capital in inventory comes down; the decision stays human.
Illustrative outcome
Planning starts from a shared, current picture; slow leather stock and stock-out risk become visible early; working capital in inventory comes down; the decision stays human. Illustrative; final numbers come from your own data.
