The operational management of big Supply Chains involves a lot of repetitive decisions. Why can't a computer do this? With Camelot Segment & Strategize, it can!
In a modern value chain, countless operational, data-driven decisions are made every day. But data changes faster than humans can react. Camelot Segment & Strategize helps companies to automate, monitor, and improve these decisions – using a powerful and highly customizable segmentation engine. Be ready for the next level of business process automation.
The core concept of Supply Chain parameterization based on Segmentation has been applied by our consultants for decades. Camelot Segment & Strategize is the result of this long-lasting experience and large range of customers and perspectives.
Segment & Strategize is designed to work with various systems both on premise and in the cloud. It requires OData interfaces to communicate both with source and target systems. If your system doesn’t support OData or in case of complex scenarios involving data from multiple sources at the same time, a middleware solution is used.
Segment & Strategize is only available as a public cloud solution. It is hosted and administered by Camelot, and runs in the Cloud Foundry environment within the SAP Cloud Platform. This ensures state-of-the-art user management, security, stability, and availability.
Segment & Strategize is offered in a subscription model with a monthly license fee. The fee involves three components: A monthly basis fee, a fee for used storage space, and a fee per successful segmentation run. Contact us to learn more about the Segment & Strategize subscription model.
There are two ways to leverage AI in Segment & Strategize: It can be used to determine smart segmentation criteria, for instance by applying machine learning to achieve a higher accuracy of forecasts. It is also possible to apply AI in the strategy assignment process, for instance by applying a simulation model on the segmentation results to optimize Supply Chain parameters. Segment & Strategize offers both predefined scenarios and support for custom algorithms.
Segment & Strategize is a microservice that aims to extend enterprise IT systems. This includes Camelot products such as the Camelot Demand-Driven LEAN Planning Suite. We offer a deep integration of Segment & Strategize into these solutions in the form of predefined profiles, but are in no way limited to them.
We are continuously extending our solutions with new functionalities that are published every four months. Bugfixes are released in patches every four weeks. Customers are informed about the included changes. Both updates and upgrades don’t require application downtime.
Business process automation is aiming to automate operational decisions that previously required human interaction to improve the overall efficiency. This concept includes other terms such as Robotic Process Automation (RPA) or Intelligent Process Automation (IPA) which highlight the use of UI-based scripts and/or Machine Learning to achieve this. Camelot Segment & Strategize is best described as a business process automation tool.
Automating processes means to derive decisions based on relevant, operational data. This results in a set of rules, which can include anything from simple if-this-then-that logic to formulas or even machine learning algorithms. Camelot Segment & Strategize utilizes meaningful segmentation criteria to reduce the complexity of these rules and to allow for user-defined exceptions.
