Design network for the world you serve

Factori helps supply chain and logistics teams use real‑world data—movement, traffic, events, economics, and demand signals—to design networks, plan capacity, and protect service levels.

Plan your operations around how the world actually works.

Most plans assume the world is stable: demand follows history, roads behave, and markets grow evenly. In reality:

Demand shifts between channels and regions

Roads clog, events hit, and patterns change

Some markets get stronger, others quietly soften

Factori gives you a clear, outside‑in view of every route, depot, and service area so you can:

Move volume through the right nodes

Hit ETAs and SLAs more reliably

Reduce avoidable cost from re‑routes, overtime, and emergency fixes

How real world visibility improves supply chains

Depot & hub placement

Decide where to open, resize, or close nodes based on real demand, access, and growth.

Lane & route planning

Align routes with actual congestion, incident patterns, and movement corridors.

Volume & capacity planning

Plan labor, fleet, and linehaul capacity using local demand and economic signals—not just last year’s volume.

Middle‑mile & last‑mile performance

Protect ETAs and SLAs by understanding which areas are structurally high‑risk and which are not.

Inventory & network trade‑offs

See where you can pool, hold closer to demand, or consolidate without surprising service impacts.

The data that drives better outcomes

You keep your WMS, TMS, and planning tools. Factori adds the real‑world layer they’re missing.

You choose the mix. We make the data simple, consistent, and aligned to your locations and zones.

Mobility

Mobility

How people and goods move around your service areas and key corridors.

Events

Events

Sports, concerts, festivals, conferences, holidays and more that spike local volume.

Retail Sales

Retail

Where spending is rising or falling by category and region—early signals of volume shifts.

People

People

Aggregated view of who lives and works in each area; useful for predicting pickup, delivery, and store traffic.

Places

Places

What’s on the ground: stores, depots, competitors, and major demand generators.

Property

Property

How neighborhoods and industrial areas are built and changing; relevant for future network design.

How teams use real-world data for supply chain optimization

Design better networks

Combine Retail Sales, Economic, People, and Places to identify where capacity should sit over the next few years.

Improve lane and route design

Use Traffic, Mobility, and Events to set realistic transit assumptions and build more robust plans.

Plan depot and warehouse labor

Pair volume forecasts with local demand and events so inbound/outbound staffing matches reality.

Protect service and ETAs

Flag high‑risk zones and time windows so you can add buffers, change promises, or adjust routing.

Support multi‑channel strategies

Use Real‑world data to decide how much capacity each channel (store, e‑com, marketplace, B2B) needs by region.

Key questions planners can actually answer

Which lanes and service areas are structurally high‑risk for delays?

Where should we add or remove capacity for next season?

How will events or local economic changes affect volume in specific regions?

Are our depots and hubs in the right places for where demand is going, not just where it has been?

How can we adjust ETAs and promises by area to reduce missed deliveries and penalties?

Used by leading planning teams

Supply chain and logistics leaders

Pick a scope

Choose a region, network segment, or lane group where performance or cost is a concern.

Select your data mix

For example: Traffic + Events + Mobility for last‑mile, or Retail Sales + Economic + People for network and capacity planning.

Run a focused review

Compare current plans with “plans informed by Factori data,” and identify specific route changes, node decisions, or capacity moves.
