Analyzing demands and capacity data

Demand and capacity data are analyzed in the Capacity Analysis dashboard.

The Capacity Analysis dashboard displays the data by default on a weekly basis:

• an overview and summary of the customer's demands
• the supplier's production capacities
• the utilization
• shows only the demand data
• shows only the capacity data
• shows data on a monthly basis

Simple and critical alerts

If the demand is higher than the capacity, respectively, if the capacity is lower than the demand, alerts are triggered.

Simple alerts
Simple alerts assume that the customer and supplier will find an arrangement to balance the deficit (for example, through a pre-production during demand peaks).

Critical alerts
Only when the cumulative demand exceeds the cumulative capacity for twelve consecutive weeks, a critical alert is triggered.
In this case, the customer and supplier must analyze the situation and agree on appropriate measures.
