Does HublerX replace the S&OP process?

No. HublerX helps make the S&OP meeting more productive by resolving routine reconciliation automatically and surfacing only genuine trade-off decisions for the meeting. The S&OP process remains — but it focuses on decisions, not data reconciliation.

Where does HublerX get the demand signal from?

HublerX reads demand from confirmed sales orders in the ERP, distributor forecasts shared via Excel or portal, WhatsApp orders captured through the order capture workflow, and promotional plans shared by the sales team. All sources are consolidated into a single demand picture without manual aggregation.

What happens when the forecast changes mid-week?

HublerX detects the change as soon as the new demand signal arrives — whether it is a new sales order, a revised distributor forecast, or a promotional uplift — and re-runs the capacity and material reconciliation immediately. If the change creates a new gap or resolves an existing one, the planner is notified and the schedule is updated.

Does this work for multi-plant operations?

Yes. HublerX can apply capacity constraints across multiple plants and balance production across lines and facilities. Where a SKU can be produced at more than one plant, HublerX surfaces the allocation options based on available capacity and material position at each location.

Demand Forecast to Production Schedule

HublerX takes demand signals from sales, distribution, and channel partners and translates them into a production schedule that accounts for real capacity, live material availability, and confirmed orders — updated continuously, not once a week.
