About DISKOVER

The managing of supply chains can sometimes be a nuisance due to unreliable forecasts, lacking product availability and still excess inventory, unreliable suppliers, bad order proposals with wrong dates and wrong quantities, miserable master data, and more issues. Imagine there is a software tool that reduces all these annoyances to a minimum. Sounds too good, but with the right approach, it is possible! DISKOVER generates statistical and AI forecasts, balances product availability with inventory and provides adequate order proposals. It also helps maintain the planning and replenishment parameters automatically. DISKOVER is kind of a personal assistant to the planner. It takes a lot of routine work off your shoulders, asks teams when decisions need to be taken, and provides the necessary information.

Key to this magic is a simulation engine, a rule set engine, and an optimization engine, which all run in the background and permanently check, test, and improve planning decisions. The simulation engine uses the broad empirical data stored in the ERP system to autonomously improve forecasts or identify the best planning parameters. The rule set engine is an artificial intelligence...

that works with cascades of decision tables to define a required parameter and master data adaptations according to changing item behavior and a changing economic environment. The optimization engine helps solve complicated optimization problems that are impossible to solve using conventional algorithms.

    Pros:
    It is fun to work with the tool and turn the cogs to continuously improve the efficiency of the supply chain.The dynamic interaction of markets, items and planning algorithms has become so complex that it is hard to think through it and find the right settings from experience. The simulation engine in DISKOVER is a fantastic tool for testing strategies and solutions. You can use it in such a way that it even automatically finds the optimal parameter settings. And the Ruleset Engine acts like an expert system in which the complete logistics strategy of a company can be mapped.
    Cons:
    I like practically everything about it. But what I observed is that some planners who are used to make replenishment decisions manually dislike the automation features because they fear that they have less possibilities to play the game in their own way. But this perception is not really true. If the users are given the appropriate rights, they can still override everything manually in DISKOVER. But fortunately the tool is so good that you don't have to be granted these rights.

    Vendor Response

    Dear Hendrik, thank you so much for the in-depth review and sharing your observation regarding the users' fear of 'losing power', so to speak. This phenomenon always baffles us as well, since DISKOVER is meant to lighten the daily work load of the users - which will naturally require to shift responsibilities towards the tool and off the user's back. But usually, once the users have experienced the results of letting DISKOVER do its job, they relax and appreciate their virtual co-worker.

    Pros:
    - Prognosefaktor- Regelwerke- Berichtsfunktion- Materialplanung- Prognoseberechnung- Parameterberechnung
    Cons:
    - es wäre toll, wenn man einen Bericht mit mehreren Reitern erstellen könnte. Je Bericht wird eine Excel Datei versandt. Es ist nur möglich einen Reiter zu versenden. Wäre z.B. hilfreich für verschiedene Auswertungen für den gleichen Verteilerkreis, der zu einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt über mehrere Berichte informiert werden soll. Bisher müsste also je Auswertung ein Bericht ( = jeweils eine Mail) erstellt werden- es wäre klasse, wenn man für mehrere Artikel überprüfen könnte, welches Regelwerk bei einem bestimmten Feld gezogen wird. Z.B. "Überprüfung 'Lagerhaltig = ja/nein'". Ist auf Artikelebene per Doppelklick und "Regelwerksüberprüfung" möglich. Es wäre klasse, wenn man in der Prognosesicht auf alle angezeigten Materialien (je nach Filter) die Regelwerksüberprüfung durchführen könnte. Bisher kopiere ich den Filter pro Regelwerk in die Prognosesicht um gegenzuprüfen welche Artikel durch das Regelwerk fließen. Oder ich kontrolliere dies über den Job "Regelwerksanwendung".- ein Ticketsystem wäre optimal. Cluster (Navigation/Neues Add-on/Beratungsbedarf, etc.)

    Cons:
    DISKOVER is run by a rather small company. As this might be a pro during implementation etc., there is always the risk that some key players might leave the software company and knowledge could get lost

    Vendor Response

    Dear Anja, thank you so much for your review! Regarding your concerns about loss of knowledge: Our staff is organized in teams which have regular daily and bi-weekly meetings to share and communicate each others knowledge and progress on their current project. Plus we also have implemented an internal knowledge base, which is kept up to date by each member of our team and is monitored by several stakeholders. I hope you find this information helpful. Is there anything we can do to improve ease of use and value for money? We would really appreciate if you'd help us out and contact support@diskover.de. Thanks again :-)

    Dear Ralf Thomas, thank you so much for your review and the input. Concerning the ease of creating and implementing rules: That was a first :-)! And indeed, the number of applied rules should be kept within reasonable boundaries. Unfortunately, it is not on us as the developers to decide, where these boundaries should be set. We can only provide you any help you need with the selection, creation and implementation of precise and adequate rules.

    Due to DISKOVER SCO, we now have a virtually unified, global production site, which has increased transparency enormously. We can now in- or decrease inventory levels much more precisely. Plus, we can monitor the company’s current state and thus determine the next steps. Our inventory goals, which are connected to our promise of delivery and the company’s KPIs, are now determined clearly, as needed and transparently.
