Overview
IPLEXR, a cloud-based Intelligent Planning, Execution & Reporting platform from PowerBynaries, is described as enabling real-time demand forecasting and dynamic inventory planning across channels (direct, indirect, e-commerce). The LinkedIn post summarizes features such as configurable forecasting with a tree view by channels, regions, DCs, and SKUs, ML model selection, and handling of missing values/outliers, plus scenario management with manual adjustments and published plans that trigger replenishment recalculation. It also notes a supply app with automated replenishment proposals, color-coded inventory coverage, and safety stock handling. IPLEXR integrates with TMS and WMS for order flow, with published orders flowing to TMS, approved loads notifying WMS, driver mobile updates, real-time tracking, and proof-of-delivery (signatures/photos). Real-time dashboards and KPIs provide end-to-end visibility. Vendor pages describe cloud-based functionality including multi-channel forecasting, automated replenishment, KPI dashboards, ETL-style integrations, and master data management, with applicability to manufacturing, retail, e-commerce, and healthcare.
