What is Arkhon?
Arkhon is a planning and optimization tool, where the user interacts via spreadsheets.
It provides the planning process to be managed fast, reliably and systematically; just as an
orchestra.
Why Arkhon?
Developed with industry expertise.
Arkhon was designed by experts with hands-on experience in planning process. It focuses on actual needs, not some hypothetical desk-bound requests.
Not complicated, easy to use
Thanks to its Excel-based interface, you can keep your current habits. Learning process is fast.
Provides coordinated work between departments
All parties (planning, production, sales, finance) work through the same data and goals. Decision-making process is simplified and accelerated.
Quick setup, quick results
Setup process is short, activating is flexible. Companies see the tangible benefits from the very first months.
Flexible use through leasing model
Arkhon is offered through a lease model. Companies can evaluate and use the software at a focus on satisfaction, without taking any investment risk.
"It is handy because of the front-end; MS Excel.
It is strong, secure and fast because of the back-end."

Differences
Speed and accuracy in demand forecasting.
Calculations are done much faster because all computer resources are utilized.
In addition to forecast, Arkhon also proposes safety stock to cover deviations. So, the forecast accuracy becomes higher than that of the competitors.
A system where everyone speaks the same language.
Arkhon has a jargon that facilitates communicaiton among planners. In addition, because all components of the plan are laid out according to a specific scheme, it is easy to read and share.
Flexible and user-controlled structure.
Arkhon's software developers are also planners, so they have designed a system from a planner's perspective. System does not control the planner, but rather the planner controls the system.
Simulation and predictive analysis power.
Arkhon achieves the result much faster than expected. That makes it easy to play with the components of the plan and generate different scenarios, and easy forecast analysis.
High efficiency with fewer resources.
With the help of artificial intelligence models and comprehensive algorithms, the plan under constraints delivers the optimum results. Resources are used more efficiently, whereas expectations are met much better.
Simplifying complex data.
Arkhon combines inputs from multiple sources into a single plan. It is easy to read. The story behind the plan is quickly understood.
Sectoral alignment and advantage in generating solutions in times of crisis.
Arkhon's software developers are planners trained in crises. They have experience in various sectors. Therefore, system has been designed to be sector-independent and to meet planning criteria at the highest level. Job description of planning involves dealing with crises. Here, system does not get in the way of the planner in such times. It rather assists the planners.
Artificial Intelligence.
Supply chain planning and optimization is a quite challenging process. Due to its extremely complex mathematical structure, there is no standard solution devleoped. Everyone has a different point of view. However, artificial intelligence models developed in recent years have made it achievable. Arkhon uses AI in many parts to make planning easier.
Clear, concise and quick summary for senior management.
Arkhon generates summary reports on critical situations and resource analysis, with a focus on financial reports. These reports keep management informed about upcoming sales, cash flow, and capacity utilization, among other things. Reports are short, clear and concise. They can be generated multiple times based on different scenarios.
