FuturMaster introduces Local Optimization, a new capability in its Bloom platform that enables supply planners to make fast, targeted adjustments during the day while staying fully aligned with the global Supply Chain model.
Supply teams often need to react within minutes to urgent orders, capacity changes, or unexpected events. Local Optimization provides immediate recalculations based on the same rules and configuration as Global Optimization. This ensures rapid decisions with zero risk of divergence.
With Local Optimization, planners can:
• Adapt the plan instantly when priorities shift.
• Test scenarios in real time and compare their impact.
• Refine a local perimeter without breaking global consistency.
• Highlight effects on critical resources to support clear arbitration.
FuturMaster’s approach now combines two complementary steps:
• Global Optimization creates the full multi-level plan outside working hours.
• Local Optimization brings speed and precision to in-day decisions.
This structure gives planners a smoother experience and greater confidence in each update.
Gilles Lefebvre, Chief Product & Technology Officer at FuturMaster, says: “Local Optimization delivers the immediacy planners need, without compromising the rigor of the global model.”
