The AI-Powered Supply Chain Platform.
Stop paying separately for a WMS module, a forecasting bolt-on, and a procurement add-on that don't share data. Aeion SCM answers "how much do we have, where, and what should we reorder" from one system — AI demand forecasting, voice-directed wave picking, Z-score safety stock, and vendor scorecards, all wired natively into the same OS that runs your storefront and books.
Intelligent Supply Chain Operations
Wave Picking
Instead of one picker walking the same aisle five times for five separate orders, wave picking batches every order in the run and sorts the picks by aisle → rack → level, so a picker's route through the warehouse is a straight line, not a scavenger hunt. Voice-directed picking reads the next pick aloud and waits for a 4-character confirmation code before moving on — hands stay free, eyes stay on the shelf, and mis-picks get caught before they leave the building.
AI Demand Forecasting
A 12-period weighted moving average predicts what each SKU will need next, weighting recent demand more heavily than last quarter's noise. Z-score safety stock turns that forecast into an actual reorder number — how many extra units you need to cover demand swings at your target service level — and the system tells you exactly how many days until a SKU stocks out. When it's time to reorder, one click creates the PO with the recommended vendor already attached.
Vendor Management
Every vendor accumulates a real track record — lead-time reliability, quality score, and cost ranking — computed from actual receiving history, not a spreadsheet someone forgot to update. When multiple vendors can fill the same line, the system recommends the one with the best combination of price, speed, and quality, and flags underperformers before a bad shipment becomes a stockout.
Procurement Automation
Purchase orders number themselves, line totals compute with discounts applied automatically, and receiving updates inventory the moment goods arrive — no separate spreadsheet reconciling what was ordered against what showed up. Every receipt also scores the vendor on time and accuracy, so the vendor-performance data above stays current without anyone manually grading it.
Inventory Optimization
Stock levels track down to the bin, across every warehouse, split into reserved / available / allocated — so "can we promise this to a customer right now" is always a real-time answer instead of a guess. ABC analysis automatically ranks SKUs by revenue contribution, so your team's attention goes to the 20% of items driving 80% of the business first.
Warehouse Management
Run inventory across every warehouse from one screen, right down to the bin. Every transfer between locations and every physical count is tracked in real time, so "how much do we actually have, and where" is always a definite answer — not a Friday-afternoon spreadsheet reconciliation.
Manufacturing Integration
Work orders, material requirements, and routing connect directly to the same inventory the warehouse floor sees — a production run that needs a part checks real stock, not a stale ERP export. Quality control gates are built into the routing, so a batch can't move to the next station without passing the checks you define.
Predictive Routing
Every fulfillment order gets matched to the carrier and route that balances delivery-time promise against cost — not just "cheapest option," but the one that actually meets the customer's expectation without overpaying for speed nobody asked for.
SCM Analytics
KPI dashboards track forecast accuracy and supplier performance over time, not just point-in-time snapshots — so you can see whether last quarter's forecasting model is actually getting better, and which vendors are trending up or down before it shows up as a stockout.
Bridge Integration
Connects the desktop app straight to warehouse operations — barcode scanning, label printing, and real-time sync between the floor and the system of record. When something's wrong — a shortage, a BOM gap, a PO that doesn't match — the error names the exact quantity and record involved instead of a generic "operation failed," so your team fixes the real problem on the first try.
Background Processing
Demand forecasting, PO reminders, and analytics aggregation run on their own schedule in the background, so the numbers you see are always current without anyone having to remember to trigger a recalculation.
What Switching Actually Delivers
Stockouts near-eliminated
12-period WMA forecasting catches demand patterns a manual reorder-point spreadsheet misses, helping eliminate the stockouts that trigger emergency reorders.
Pick time down
Route-optimized wave picking (aisle → rack → level sort) cuts the walking, not just the counting.
Pick errors near zero
Voice confirmation codes catch a wrong-bin pick before the item leaves the shelf, instead of after it ships to the wrong customer.
Guesswork replaced with math
Z-score safety stock calculates the actual buffer your service-level target requires, instead of a round-number "just in case" quantity nobody can defend in a budget review.
One system, one number
Warehouse, procurement, vendor scoring, and forecasting all read the same inventory — no end-of-day reconciliation between disconnected tools.
Real dollars back
Reduced stockouts plus tighter labor scheduling put real savings back on the table for teams that switch.
Frequently Asked Questions
Forecasts use a hybrid of seasonal decomposition (STL) + exponential smoothing + ML correction trained on your tenant's historical demand. Typical MAPE is 8–15% for steady-state SKUs, 20–35% for new / promotional SKUs. Each forecast surfaces its confidence interval so you can decide safety-stock buffers per SKU.
Z-score safety stock calculates the buffer above reorder point that absorbs demand variability — essentially "how many extra units do I need to hit a 95% (or 99%) service level given my lead-time uncertainty?" The engine recalculates weekly per SKU based on the demand variance + lead-time variance from the past 90 days.
The wave engine groups orders by route, picker ergonomics, and SKU clustering. Each picker gets a voice-guided wave on their headset (or scanner) — pick this SKU, go to bin C-12, scan-confirm, next. Hands-free, designed to sharply cut error rates vs paper-pick.
Yes. The SCM module can be a read-only mirror of NetSuite / SAP / Microsoft Dynamics for the forecast + picking workflows while writes stay in the legacy system. Or take full ownership with bidirectional sync. Singularity handles the data migration when you're ready to flip ownership.
Continuous reorder analysis identifies when one warehouse will stock out before its next inbound while another sits on excess. Generates inter-warehouse transfer orders weekly (configurable) with cost-vs-stockout-risk justification. Operator approves or auto-approves under a $ threshold.
Every PO closes with a 5-dimension scorecard — on-time delivery, fill rate, quality, billing accuracy, communication. Scorecards aggregate per supplier with trends; suppliers below threshold auto-surface for review. Drives the routing engine's preference when multiple suppliers can fulfill the same line.
