Q&A: How AI-powered diagnostics solve retail’s supply chain puzzle
Learn how RELEX Diagnostics leverages AI-driven analytics to automate problem-solving and drive cross-functional collaboration.
Planner diagnostics solution
Manual forecast adjustments prove their worth
Planners override forecasts, but few organizations measure whether those changes improve outcomes, leaving bias, wasted effort, and hidden inventory and service costs unchecked.
RELEX Planner Diagnostics tracks the impact of every manual change and turns reactive firefighting into data-driven performance management.
Measure, evaluate, and improve every manual override
Planner Diagnostics gives visibility into planner activity across individuals, product groups, and time periods, scoring the cost and impact of every manual change. Instead of guessing whether an override helped, planning teams see it, coach to it, and build a track record of improvement.
Key features
See what overrides really cost
Track, score, and explain the impact of every manual forecast and order proposal change, so planners know with data, not instinct, whether an override helped.
Benefits
Deliver a win at every level
RELEX gives each role its own evidence: the C-suite sees ROI, planning managers coach with data, planners see the value of their own adjustments, and IT skips the custom reporting work entirely.
Quantify the return on planning talent
Planning team ROI becomes visible to the C-suite. Diagnostic data shows where to invest in talent versus automation and provides KPI accountability with an objective basis.
Coach with evidence, not instinct
Individual planners get coached against real performance data. Workloads balance around where adjustments actually add value, and team performance benchmarks over time.
See which adjustments earn their time
Planners see which of their own adjustments helped versus hurt, so expertise gets spent on exceptions that matter, and skills build faster with targeted feedback.
Skip the custom reporting
Diagnostics is native to the unified data model, so tracking planner impact requires no custom reports or integration work.
