Range-to-Cash Trading Yield
Which product, customer and branch range action should happen now to improve cash, margin and service value?
The operating gap
The decision the engine brings into focus.
- Velocity alone does not express substitution, supplier funding, service obligations or transferable stock.
- Inventory and commercial economics live in different systems and often disagree at the decision cutoff.
- Local range choices can improve one branch while destroying group cash or service value elsewhere.
- A slow-line label does not specify a feasible, owned and measurable next action.
Evidence spine
Each source remains authoritative for its own facts. The engine reconciles identity, units, timing and conflicts at a shared decision cutoff.
Cross-system truth at the decision grain.
Decision-to-model responsibility
Learned evidence changes declared uncertain quantities before action selection; deterministic and optimisation layers preserve feasibility and policy.
Each layer owns a different kind of truth.
| Owner | What it owns | Authority |
|---|---|---|
| learned | Estimate SKU-branch demand, sell-through, stockout and excess-stock distributions over the decision horizon. | Influences declared uncertain quantities |
| deterministic | Enforce mandatory-line, pricing-floor, transfer-lane, identity, unit, currency, evidence and authority constraints. | Preserves hard constraints |
| optimisation | Select the feasible branch/category action set under service, assortment, transfer and operator-capacity constraints. | Selects the feasible portfolio |
Atomic action system
Recommendations ready for accountable execution.
- 01Activate one named SKU at one named branch
- 02Hold one range posture through a defined review window
- 03Transfer a bounded quantity through one feasible lane
- 04Suspend replenishment for one named SKU-branch exposure
- 05Request one supplier-funding decision against a named term
Value method
Keeps cash timing, working-capital release, contribution, supplier funding and service value separate, with shared exposure keys preventing double counting.
Executable product evidence
The governed reference environment exercises the reusable production path at operator depth.
Inspect how the engine reaches a decision.
The complete decision mechanism is available for guided reference execution. The QOA establishes the organisation-specific evidence, calibration and operating scope.
Paid QOA
Can joined range, stock, demand, margin and funding evidence support a better weekly SKU-branch action portfolio?
Decision evidence
- Stable SKU and branch identities across stock, order and finance evidence
- Cutoff-safe demand and fulfilled-sales history
- Finance-approved cost, contribution and supplier-funding basis
- Named authority over range, transfer, pricing or replenishment actions
Qualification gates
- Branch/SKU economics or stock/order evidence cannot be joined
- No authority exists over a material range action
- No working-capital, contribution or service value pool can be measured
Qualification
Put this decision under evidence.
A paid QOA establishes the predictive opportunity, action authority, operating design and finance-recognisable path to value.
