Demand Forecasting and Planning

  • Detect demand shifts before inventory and capacity move
  • Compare scenarios before committing the demand plan
  • Align service, margin and inventory objectives

Market demand shifts rarely wait for the planning cycle. Natzka combines actuals, plans and historical demand with promotions, lead times, logistics constraints and product phase-in or phase-out cycles. AI detects changing patterns and improves the forecast. Planners compare scenarios, align assumptions and commit to one demand plan with explicit service-level, inventory, profitability and margin trade-offs. Commercial, Supply Chain and Finance work from the same numbers and resolve forecast differences inside one planning process.

Supply Planning & Constrained Planning

  • Model capacity, materials, lead times and constraints
  • Make cost, service and risk trade-offs visible
  • Replan quickly when constraints change

Model production capacity, RCCP, material and semi-finished availability, supplier lead times and constraints across the supply network to generate plans that can actually be executed. What-if analysis makes the cost, service, inventory and risk impact of each alternative visible before commitment. Planners can compare feasible options, understand where constraints bite and replan quickly when demand or supply changes. The chosen plan reflects operational reality, not theoretical capability.

Inventory Optimization

  • Balance service levels against working capital
  • Model MOQ, lead-time and safety-stock changes
  • Quantify cash and availability before acting

Natzka recommends inventory targets by SKU and location based on demand variability, supplier reliability, replenishment constraints, and service-level objectives. Simulate changes to MOQs, lead times, safety stock and reorder policies, and quantify the impact on cash, availability and margin before acting. Dynamic policies can adapt as conditions change, reducing both stockouts and excess inventory. Inventory stops being a static buffer and becomes a decision lever for working capital, service and resilience.

Order Management & Fulfillment Logic

  • Prioritise orders using clear business rules
  • Balance service, margin and inventory constraints
  • Route exceptions to the right decision owner

Make order allocation and fulfilment logic explicit, transparent and auditable. AI recommends fulfilment options inside those business rules, while exceptions and overrides remain visible to the right decision owner. Simulate policy changes and immediately see the effect on service level, cost-to-serve and delivery performance before deployment. The result is faster fulfilment without turning customer commitments into a black box.

Production Scheduling & MRP

  • Synchronise materials, capacity and production demand
  • Sequence work around real operational constraints
  • Test schedule changes before releasing the plan

Connect material availability, finite capacity and sequencing rules to build schedules that respect actual machine, labour and tooling constraints. Planners can simulate rush orders, unplanned downtime or supplier delays and compare schedules on OTIF, cost, throughput and resource utilisation. AI and optimisation speed up comparisons of feasible alternatives, keeping trade-offs explicit. The best plan can be committed quickly and released to execution with fewer manual iterations.

Supply Chain Network Optimisation

  • Compare sourcing, stocking and distribution networks
  • Quantify cost, service and resilience trade-offs
  • Test new or consolidated distribution nodes
  • Place inventory where it creates the most value

Evaluate distribution flows, stocking locations, sourcing choices and inventory placement across the network to balance cost, resilience and service. Model alternatives such as consolidating or adding distribution centres, shifting sourcing lanes or rebalancing stock across nodes, then quantify the effect on lead times, transportation cost, risk and working capital. Strategic network decisions are grounded in scenario outcomes, present constraints and long-term economics, with the rationale preserved before major commitments are made.

Integrated Business Planning

  • Align Demand, Supply, Finance and Commercial plans
  • Run one rolling plan across functions
  • Quantify revenue, margin and working-capital trade-offs
  • Turn consensus into owned, executable commitments

IBP breaks down when each function arrives with its own version of the plan. Natzka brings Demand, Supply, Inventory, Finance and Commercial teams into one synchronised planning cadence. Stakeholders work from one version of the numbers, compare scenarios across a rolling horizon and quantify trade-offs between revenue, margin, service levels and working capital. Decisions and accountabilities are made explicit, the consensus operating plan flows into the financial outlook, and every major commitment is validated before execution. IBP becomes a decision system, not another monthly meeting.

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
