Vantage: Financial and Inventory Intelligence

Vantage gives finance teams, and the accountants and lenders they work with, a defensible, continuously updated view of what inventory is really worth: stock position, obsolescence probability and forward demand for every article. The same numbers run the daily planning operation, so the valuation your finance team reports and the plan your supply chain executes come from one source. Customers typically free 15-30% of the capital tied up in inventory and improve forecast accuracy by 15-25%.

Built for mid-market manufacturers, retailers, wholesalers and distributors that hold meaningful stock and run their business on an ERP plus spreadsheets, without a data science team.

• Inventory Valuation and Obsolescence: A deterministic, traceable classification of every article with its probability of sale, so old and slow stock is identified, quantified and explained in a form an accountant, auditor or lender can review. ABC-XYZ segmentation and demand-pattern detection focus attention and capital where they matter.
• Demand Forecasting: An 11-model ensemble of statistical, deep learning and foundation models that learns from your transaction history and produces forecasts tailored to your demand patterns, including new items with no sales history.
• Supply Planning: Stochastic safety stock, service-level optimisation and an AI supply agent that keeps recommendations current as your data changes, with human approval on every decision.
• S&OP: Consensus planning that brings demand, supply and finance into one decision framework, with scenarios and trade-offs you can sign off with confidence.
• Institutional Knowledge (Vantage Lens): Captures the context behind the numbers from your own documents, so the reasoning behind a valuation or a plan is available to anyone who has to defend it.

• Finance: the CFO or finance director who owns the working-capital position, the stock valuation and the financing conversation.
• Lenders and advisers: the bank, accountant or corporate-finance adviser who has to accept the evidence behind an inventory-backed facility.
• Supply chain: the planners and the COO who run the engine day to day and act on its recommendations.

• 15-30% reduction in capital tied up in inventory
• A defensible, article-level view of inventory value and obsolescence that is updated every planning cycle, not once a year
• 15-25% improvement in forecast accuracy over baseline methods
• 30-90 days from contract to go-live, depending on complexity

Vantage layers on top of your existing ERP, including SAP IBP through a pre-built adaptor, and delivers outputs back to SAP, Power BI, Qlik, Amazon QuickSight or Tableau. No rip-and-replace is required.

After subscribing, onboarding follows a structured sequence:

1. Discovery and data connection (Week 1-2): Connect your ERP or data source, map schemas and validate historical transaction data.
2. Model training and calibration (Week 2-4): Vantage trains its models on your data and calibrates classification and obsolescence parameters.
3. Validation and go-live (Week 3-6): Review the valuation view, forecasts and supply recommendations with your finance and planning teams, then activate production pipelines.
4. Hypercare (post go-live): Ongoing support to fine-tune models as new data flows through.

Enterprise customers receive a dedicated hypercare engagement of up to 120 days. An 8-week prove-it engagement on your own data is available through the EnhanceBMT professional services listing.

Vantage runs entirely on AWS in an event-driven architecture across ECS, Step Functions, S3 and DynamoDB, with every AI model call served through Amazon Bedrock in the EU. Each customer environment is isolated with per-tenant data partitioning, WAF-protected API endpoints and KMS encryption at rest. Compute runs only when pipelines run, so there is no always-on infrastructure cost.

Starter, Professional and Enterprise are sized for companies from EUR 10M to EUR 1B in revenue. All tiers include 100,000 SKU-locations per month and onboarding support; higher tiers add capability and a lower rate on additional volume. See the Pricing section for what each tier includes.

To evaluate Vantage on your own data, or to discuss a working-capital or financing question with the EnhanceBMT team, contact us through the support channel on this page. We will walk you through tier selection, data readiness and an onboarding timeline for your environment.
