Demand planning

Beacon and ToolsGroup

ToolsGroup provides demand forecasting, inventory optimisation and replenishment planning software. Teams running ToolsGroup often bring planning outputs and shipment updates into Beacon to connect expected demand with live delivery progress, helping teams manage exceptions and costs without replacing the planning tools they already use. It gives teams a shared operational picture for day-to-day decisions.
