Abstract: For each order in a supply chain, order details are accessed. A disposition of each load of each order, the disposition comprising a plurality of expected milestones and a plurality of actual milestones. Each load is identified as either completed or projected based on the disposition of the load. An inventory readiness metric for each load is determined based on the disposition of the load. An inventory readiness root cause for each load is determined based on the disposition of the load. Load data for each load is stored in a supply chain data store. The load data comprising the disposition of the load, the inventory readiness metric for the load, and the inventory readiness root cause for the load. Queries about the supply chain are responded to using the load data.

Abstract: Systems and methods for prioritizing trailers can include receiving a list of trailers at a distribution center, determining, for each trailer, an aggregate inventory readiness date, and ranking, into a high priority list, one or more trailers of the trailers that contain high priority items. The method can also include ranking, into an inventory readiness date list, one or more trailers of the trailers that were not added to the high priority list based on the aggregate inventory readiness date of each trailer, selecting, from the inventory readiness date list, trailers having the same aggregate inventory readiness date, ranking those trailers into a store need list based on one or more of the trailers containing needed items. The method can also include generating a trailer unload prioritization list based on combining the high priority list, the inventory readiness date list, and the store need list, and outputting the list.

Abstract: Order data specifies one or more items to be purchased from one or more source locations in a supply chain for a destination location. One or more constraints are received for the order in the supply chain. Travel path are determined for the item to reach the destination location, the travel path defining a plurality of facilities and a plurality of travel legs that together define a travel path for the item to be shipped from a source location to a destination location. One or more milestones for the travel path are selected based on the constraints. One or more other milestones for the travel path are selected based on the constraints. One of the milestones is an inventory readiness date that specifies a first calendar date on which an order of items should be ready at each items' respective destination location.
