Arkieva Orbit vs REMIRA Integrated Business Planning

Arkieva Orbit is a digital supply chain planning platform that brings planning data into a central repository for analytics and cross-functional sales and operations planning. Its One-Plan process gives teams a shared data source. Demand planning covers analysis, segmentation, sensing, shaping and forecasting; inventory features include flexible metrics, obsolete-stock identification and alerts for imbalanced levels. Capacity planning supports what-if analysis and review of shortfalls or excess, while supply planning includes MRP, DRP and CRP. Teams can switch multiple scenarios on or off and simulate as many as needed. Orbit combines in-memory OLTP and OLAP in a multithreaded engine using available CPUs. Analytics include predictive and time-series analysis, forecasting algorithms, rule-based AI, implementation diagnostics and R integration. Deployment options are on-premise, cloud or hybrid, with web and self-hosted access. A unified data model connects Arkieva modules and external applications. Arkieva Data Connector handles batch and real-time integrations with multiple systems, including ERP, CRM, data warehouse and BI sources. Pricing is available on request.

REMIRA Integrated Business Planning is cloud software for balancing supply and demand across the planning process in real time. It combines sales and demand planning with production and capacity planning, supply planning, inventory management, and S&OP. Historical data feeds plans and forecasts, while predictive and prescriptive analytics identify supply-chain opportunities and risks. Functions include sales forecasting, scheduling, virtual history, seasonal and action planning, shelf-life tracking, and scenario simulation. The system flags stock exceptions, shelf-life violations, date conflicts, and overstocks. Sales, marketing, and operations teams can coordinate through a shared database. REMIRA can connect to an ERP system or operate independently, using open APIs and industry standards for other connections. It is delivered as SaaS from European Union cloud data centers, without local installation. Integrations are encrypted and can use single sign-on through Microsoft Entra or Active Directory. Pricing depends on customer size and requirements and is available on request.
