LeadTimeIQ

LeadTimeIQ is a web app (with optional mobile alerts) that monitors supplier lead-time drift and turns messy purchasing signals into early warnings. It connects to your ERP/PO data and shipping milestones, then builds a baseline for each supplier-part lane (normal lead time, variance, seasonality). When a lane starts trending worse—more partials, late ASNs, longer dock-to-stock—it flags the risk, estimates the likely stockout date, and suggests concrete actions: expedite, reallocate inventory, adjust safety stock, or trigger a secondary supplier RFQ. This is not a “magic risk score” dashboard; it’s a pragmatic exception engine that focuses on the few lanes that actually threaten service levels. It also tracks which interventions worked, so planners can stop repeating expensive expedites that don’t move the needle.
