Today's signals
Jaipur Unit · Line 3 bottleneck on Marie Biscuits 200g
Projected demand outpaces line capacity by 14% in week 51. Recommend shifting 8,400 cases to Mumbai Unit Line 1 — slack available.
South zone freight: open 32 ft slot to Chennai
Three 20 ft trips to Chennai run at 72% load. Consolidating to one 32 ft saves trips on Mon & Wed.
Choco Chip Cookies 200g · holiday uplift detected
Historic Dec lift +18%. Current S&OP uplift set at 9%. Suggest revising to 17% before locking week 50.
