ABSTRACT:
A system for optimizing request-promise workflows includes a first entity that provides supplies to a second entity. The second entity optimizes its production to generate a request for the supplies and reoptimizes in response to promises received from the first entity. The first entity may send a culprit promise that identifies the supply that is creating the shortage.
