Automated Testing Framework
Easier, faster, and more reliable testing

 

Inspirage has developed an Automated Testing Framework that replaces manual testing by automating some of the repetitive, but necessary, tasks used in regression testing. It is essential in an agile environment, like those that are inherently part of cloud deployments, that organizations be able to quickly run tests on patches and updates. The framework does this by using a series of test scenarios to compare actual outcomes with predicted results. With the Automated Testing Framework from Inspirage, businesses can save time and resources that would normally be spent on inefficient, manual tasks.

Inspirage Supply Chain Intelligent Application (INSIA) Digital Assistant
Modernize the Oracle ERP/SCM user experience with instant answers to questions

Recipe Management
Develop, understand, control and launch your formulated products

 

The Inspirage Recipe Management Solution is built on Oracle PLM Cloud and is extended by incorporating industry knowledge to deliver an enterprise-scale solution to manage, understand and control this critical product data. The food, beverage, vitamin and other formulated packaged goods industries are seeing a rise in legislative requirements related to the management of nutrition, food safety, and product supply chains. This drives a requirement for deep and continuous management of these products in a holistic way.

Lean Manufacturing
Plan and schedule jobs on flow lines, automate mandatory shop floor transactions

 

Inspirage’s Lean Manufacturing Solution allows schedulers in the industrial manufacturing, high tech, and medical devices industries to quickly promise customer orders after rapidly checking line capacities. Resulting jobs from back-to-back order processes can be slotted on flow manufacturing lines while taking into consideration capacities and product scheduling constraints. Scheduled jobs can be revisited and overridden to cater to the changing needs of the end customers. By identifying completion at the end of the flow lines, schedulers can automatically finalize all moves, address issues, and backflush transactions. The final outcome is more material control on the shop floor, resulting in a pull manufacturing system that is much more efficient than the push system.

Inspirage Offer Management
One-stop solution to define, manage and seamlessly share the data of marketing offers


The Inspirage Offer Management Solution enables Marketing Managers and Sales Executives to create new marketing offers to meet the needs of customers in various industries and regions. Businesses today struggle to track the complete lifecycle of an offer from ideation to end-of-life. Their offer management strategies might involve multiple cross-functional teams and often the data is scattered across PLM, ERP, and CPQ applications. There is no single source of truth that gives customers visibility into consolidated information on their offer lifecycles. Many customers have requested a portal for complete visibility into their offer lifecycles.

Inspirage’s Offer Management Solution is a comprehensive platform that can track offer lifecycle from ideation to end-of-life and seamlessly integrates with Oracle Cloud offerings like IM Cloud, PDH Cloud, and CPQ Cloud for end-to-end offer definition management.

The solution also enables companies to create promotions, manage the key attributes linked to promotions (such as event start and end dates), off-invoice rates and scan rates and promotion tactics. These promotions are integrated with Oracle Cloud Demand Management to generate the incremental forecast. The base and incremental forecast are then integrated back into the trade promotion solution for the spend calculations.

In addition, our solution can also help manage trade promotion payments and settlements. Inspirage’s solution centralizes all this information into comprehensive UI, enabling the users to manage funds and promotions and analyze the effectiveness of the committed promotions. The solution also enables businesses to streamline deduction and payment requests processes for better visibility on actual trade spend and performance.

Inspirage Supplier Portal
One-stop solution to define, manage and seamlessly share the data of marketing offers

Today, product-based companies do not work in a vacuum. They are more and more reliant on their expanding universe of supply chain partners for high-quality product data and for participation in collaborative product launch and change processes. They must be ready to meet increasing regulatory requirements armed with a complete understanding of product data and provenance. The more robust the product definition, the more efficiency and quality an enterprise achieves in product management. This drives product visibility and transparency, aids in identifying duplicity and proliferation in parts, drives item and component re-use, and aids in volume spend among other business benefits. Identifying, gathering, and addressing data thoroughness and quality has historically been challenging outside of a company’s four walls. The Inspirage Supplier Portal provides a secure and scalable means of addressing these challenges.

Inspirage WMS-OTM Integration Using OIC
Easy to deploy and scale WMS-OTM integration with ERP Cloud
