ABSTRACT:
Entering a demand prediction for a discrete component product manufactured in a supply chain into a model predictive controller, entering inventory information for an inventory in the supply chain that is associated with the discrete component product into the model predictive controller, and controlling the inventory with the model predictive controller based on the demand prediction is disclosed.
