Vanguard Predictive Planning™
A Different PlatformVanguard Predictive Planning™ Differentiators
Vanguard Predictive Planning is a state-of-the-art, market-leading, cloud-based platform that enables our clients to achieve breakaway performance through probability-based collaborative planning.
Whether an organization is planning within one line of business like the supply chain, or connecting plans across all lines of business with true Integrated Business Planning, Vanguard Predictive Planning is the most scalable, flexible, and user-friendly option on the market.
UHIO Db
Unified High Performance In-memory Object-oriented Database. Forecast millions of SKUs in an instant. No cubes or aggregations to build, no waiting for jobs to run overnight. With UHIO, users can unify all enterprise data, no matter the origin or how large the data set, into a single unified data store for fast planning and forecasting.
Collaboration Hub
Keeping the right personnel in the information loop and distributing key information is what the Collaboration Hub is all about. Whether those resources are within your organization or with a client or supplier, collaboration and information-sharing is essential to supply chain planning success.
Vanguard Data Integrator
One of the first concerns organizations have when exploring cloud-based planning applications is how to get data in and out of the platform in an automated fashion. Vanguard users can rest easily knowing the platform includes a data integrator (ETL tool) that automates data integration while both importing and exporting data.
AI/ML
Vanguard Predictive Planning leverages artificial intelligence in multiple areas of the platform, including forecast method selection, demand prediction and pattern detection, and automation of tasks. Our team of data scientists is constantly evaluating new machine learning algorithms and applications of artificial intelligence within the platform.
Consumable Analytics
Analytics are only valuable if the end-users are able to use them to improve their decision-making. Our Consumable Analytics have been developed to ensure each end-user of our system can achieve this goal of improved decision-making. By combining visual techniques, mash-ups, and dashboards with traditional pivot tables, our analytics can be easily interpreted by end-users.
Mesh Network
Not all cloud infrastructures are the same: some offer a single instance, others offer a cold back-up, still others offer a hot sync or failover. Only Vanguard offers several servers throughout the world that sync in real-time. Since the MESH Network has been live our end-users have never seen any downtime – not even for fixes or patches.
Single Sign-On
No one wants to have to remembers user IDs and passwords for each and every system they use. Some cloud applications make this the case, but Vanguard is different. Vanguard understands the user experience and supports Single Sign-On, so it is not necessary to remember yet another user ID and Password.
100+ Languages Support
Does your organization have users in non-English speaking countries? Vanguard Predictive Planning supports over 100 languages for its user interface. Whether Hebrew, Spanish or French, we’ve got you covered.
Grid Computing
Vanguard Predictive Planning offers support for Grid Computing in the event your organization needs enhanced computation power. Grid Computing divides simulation tasks among several computers, giving you the processing power to run enterprise-scale simulations without the cost of supercomputing.
Monte Carlo Simulation
Simulations are, by far, the superior method of “what-if” planning. But for most software applications, simulations are either outside the scope or they are a separate add-on. Not with Vanguard Predictive Planning. Monte Carlo simulation is built-in with no additional jobs to run or integrations to perform.
