Use Cases & Decision Workflows

Make Decisions that Protect Liquidity and Drive Growth

Demand Forecasting and Planning

  • Forecast demand by product, plant and horizon
  • Translate demand changes into material and capacity impact
  • Align Sales, Operations and Finance on one plan

Combine customer orders, historical demand and market signals with lead times, lifecycle changes and production constraints to create one committed demand view. AI detects shifts in demand patterns so Production, Procurement, and Finance can align before changes hit the factory, and the plan reflects both commercial reality and the limits of the production network.

Supply Planning & Constrained Planning

  • Balance demand against plant and supplier capacity
  • Model material and semi-finished availability
  • Compare cost, service and risk trade-offs

Bring predictability to your operations with supply plans built around your real production constraints, from plant capacity to supplier lead times. Catch bottlenecks and infeasible commitments early by analysing the cost and risk of every alternative upfront. Ultimately, this lets you test sourcing and inventory responses and choose the path that best protects your bottom line and customer service.

Production Scheduling & MRP

  • Sequence production around finite capacity
  • Synchronise materials with planned orders
  • Model setups, changeovers and priority rules

Transform your customer demand into precise operational sequences tied directly to your finite resource availability. By grouping material stock, machine capacity, labour shifts, and tooling into a single model, you can simulate unexpected machine downtime, supplier delays, or last-minute rush orders. You can evaluate alternative schedules side by side using real metrics like OTIF, cost, and throughput. Built-in AI optimisation helps you find the best path forward, delivering a realistic schedule built on your actual factory-floor limits.

Predictive Maintenance

  • Combine condition data with production criticality
  • Predict failures before they interrupt output
  • Prioritise maintenance by cost and capacity impact

Failure risk matters when it changes the maintenance decision. Natzka combines equipment telemetry and maintenance history to model degradation patterns and estimate remaining useful life at asset level. AI detects patterns that precede breakdowns, while interventions are prioritised using failure probability, operational criticality, safety impact, production context and repair cost. Move from fixed schedules and reactive mode to condition-based decisions that protect output without over-maintaining healthy assets.

Rough Cut Capacity Planning

  • Translate demand into plant and resource capacity
  • Expose medium-term bottlenecks early
  • Test shifts, overtime, outsourcing and investment

Stop fighting impossible production schedules by measuring your Master Production Schedule against true resource availability from the start. You can visualise future bottlenecks and resource gaps period by period, giving you a clear window to solve problems early. Your team can model the financial and operational outcomes of adding shifts, outsourcing, or building ahead. This ensures you lock in profitable capacity decisions on your own terms, long before the shop floor falls behind.

Workforce Capacity Planning

  • Match skills and shifts to production demand
  • Compare overtime, contractors and redeployment
  • Protect output while controlling labour cost

Map out your labour requirements by role, skill, and location directly against your production demand and constraints. Evaluate alternative shift configurations, headcount changes, overtime, and outsourcing options to preview their effect on costs, coverage, and risk before making changes. This ties your labour plan directly to actual factory needs, giving your leadership team the precise data required to choose the best path forward.

Inventory Optimization

  • Set stock targets by material, SKU and location
  • Balance line continuity against working capital
  • Test safety-stock and MOQ policies before acting

Align your raw materials, WIP, and finished goods with actual demand variability, supplier reliability, and production lead times. You can test changes to safety stocks, MOQs, and reorder rules and see their immediate impact on working capital, line continuity, and customer service before making them live. This helps you move beyond simple inventory reduction, empowering you to put the right stock in the right place to protect throughput without wasting cash.

Integrated Business Planning

  • Connect commercial, plant, supply and finance plans
  • Resolve constraints in one rolling planning cycle
  • Quantify revenue, margin and working-capital impact
  • Commit every function to the same operating plan

Break down operational silos by linking your entire commercial, production, and finance planning into a single rhythm. You can instantly see how volume changes affect your factory floor, supplier lead times, inventory liabilities, and your bottom line. Instead of departments working against each other, this empowers you to establish one cohesive, financially backed plan where every leader knows exactly what they are responsible for delivering.

Hyphen turns content production into smarter commercial decisions

Content production was already streamlined, but cost, performance and commercial impact still lived in separate views, making it difficult to know where each production investment created value.

What Natzka implemented

Natzka brings production costs, product priorities and sales performance into one decision context, helping teams prioritise content, reuse existing assets and direct investment where it can perform best.

Turn component lifing into a decision made before race day

Thousands of high-value components move across cars, sessions and races. Manual lifecycle tracking made preparation slower and made it harder to know exactly when each part should be replaced.

What Natzka implemented

Natzka combines component history, mileage and race data in a live decision model, anticipating replacement needs, preparing logistics earlier and automating post-race lifing analysis.Lifting Proactive Monitoring
