Manufacturing and Products
Materials and components arrive from many suppliers, move through production, and leave as finished goods on a promise date. One late container can idle a line.

13 connected intelligence capabilities across 5 groups.
Activated inside one Supply Chain Brain, never bought as separate tools.
Supplier performance: resolved inside the Brain.
A critical item's on-time-in-full slips. The Brain traces it to the factory and item behind it, shows the orders and customers exposed, and coordinates the corrective action.
Explore this pain point on the boardLate supplier risk: resolved inside the Brain.
A disruption hits an approved factory. The Brain works out the exact exposure by item, order and customer, and compares mitigation options with the residual risk of each.
Explore this pain point on the boardForecast swings: resolved inside the Brain.
Demand moves away from the forecast. The Brain shows where stock will run short or pile up, and what to bring forward, hold or cancel before either happens.

- Detect: Spots the signal in your data and the outside world before the date is missed.
- Understand: Resolves which suppliers, items, orders and customers the event touches.
- Recommend: Compares the options on cost, service, risk and the decision deadline.
- Coordinate: Carries the approved action to every owner and system that has to move.
- Learn: Keeps the decision, the evidence and the outcome for next time.

- The signal
On-time-in-full for a critical component falls for the third week running.
- The decision
Split the volume with the second source.
Approved · Category manager - The outcome
The line kept running. The supplier's performance record and the split-source decision are retained against the item.
Systems of record remain yours. Navisight reads from them, writes back only what you approve, and never replaces them.

What the Brain does, and what stays with your people.
- Detects a supplier slipping before the line is affected
- Explains which orders, batches and customers a delay touches
- Recommends split sourcing, expediting or safety stock changes with the cost of each
- Drafts supplier follow-ups and coordinates the approved action
- Awarding volume to a new or second source
- Changing safety stock or production sequence
- Any commitment to a customer on a revised date
- Quality release decisions
- Supplier on-time-in-full
- Line stoppages from material shortage
- Inventory days of supply
- Expedite freight spend
- Order fill rate
Every recommendation shows its source, its confidence and who decides.
- The Brain never releases a batch, changes a specification or approves a supplier. Those decisions stay with quality, engineering and procurement.
- In regulated sectors such as pharmaceuticals, GMP and batch-record controls remain in the systems of record; the Brain reads them and never writes to them.
- Every material recommendation is presented with its evidence, its timestamp, its confidence, the alternatives considered and the decision owner. Nothing here is executed without that owner.
