Patent number: 10580021Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to supply chain recommendations and application in real-time. A correlation between order proposals and firm orders is provided, and a correlation between the proposals and orders is measured in the form of compliance. A command associated with a measurement of the compliance is generated and applied to one or more hardware addressable components or associated machines. The application of the commands changes a physical aspect of the product, thereby effectively transforming a state of the product.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2016Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Derek P.

Patent number: 8244591Abstract: A method for processing an incoming order for equipment can be provided. A plurality of objects representing environmental factors is read, each object comprising at least one of a required parts list and an excluded parts list. Next, a customer places an order for computer equipment, wherein the order comprises a list of parts. A list of environmental factors is entered by the customer and the list of environmental factors is matched to at least one of the objects. The method can further include comparing the list of parts of the order to the required parts list and/or the excluded parts list of the at least one object. Finally, a record that the order is validated is stored if the list of parts of the order is consistent with the required parts list and/or the excluded parts list of the at least one object.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2007Date of Patent: August 14, 2012Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Derek P.

Publication number: 20100057531Abstract: Discovering Rarely-Planned Parts using Order Proposal Data Discovering rarely-planned parts using order proposal data in a manufacturing/assembly environment. Requests for rarely-planned parts are detected by analyzing data from order proposals, providing early warning to the manufacturer prior to receiving an order that uses the parts and allowing the manufacturer to perform advance planning, ordering, and/or scheduling for the parts. The early warnings may also pertain to resources which may be associated with the parts, including testing, documentation, and so forth for supporting use of the parts in products. User-specified rules (or other conditions/constraints) may be used for defining which order proposals to analyze and/or the type of analysis to be performed.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 3, 2008Publication date: March 4, 2010Applicant: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Derek P.
