The DLT Demand Planner is successful because it allows forecasters to focus
on their process. Nearly all off-the-shelf forecasting packages require
planners to adapt the forecast process to the software functionality and subsequently
provide little assistance when changes in the business occur. All companies are
unique, and a forecast process that complements business practices can be a tremendous
competitive advantage.

The DLT Inventory Analyzer identifies future inventory levels that may
lead to write-offs and opportunities within the supply chain network to
minimize them. It is particularly appropriate for products with limited
shipping and shelf lives distributed through a network of
Distribution Centers (DC’s). Such products include foods, pharmaceuticals,
appliances, personal computers, cell phones, and even vehicles among others.
There is a desire to deliver these to customers while several weeks (or months)
remain before the shelf life expiry date. The “shelf life” is related to
product degradation in the case of foods and pharmaceuticals and obsolescence
resulting from new model introduction in the case of computers, cell phones,
and vehicles.
