# Smart Procurement Implementation Summary
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
This document summarizes the implementation of the Smart Procurement system, which has been successfully re-architected and integrated into the Bakery IA platform. The system provides advanced procurement planning, purchase order management, and supplier relationship management capabilities.
|
|
|
|
## Architecture Changes
|
|
|
|
### Service Separation
|
|
The procurement functionality has been cleanly separated into two distinct services:
|
|
|
|
#### Suppliers Service (`services/suppliers`)
|
|
- **Responsibility**: Supplier master data management
|
|
- **Key Features**:
|
|
- Supplier profiles and contact information
|
|
- Supplier performance metrics and ratings
|
|
- Price lists and product catalogs
|
|
- Supplier qualification and trust scoring
|
|
- Quality assurance and compliance tracking
|
|
|
|
#### Procurement Service (`services/procurement`)
|
|
- **Responsibility**: Procurement operations and workflows
|
|
- **Key Features**:
|
|
- Procurement planning and requirements analysis
|
|
- Purchase order creation and management
|
|
- Supplier selection and negotiation support
|
|
- Delivery tracking and quality control
|
|
- Automated approval workflows
|
|
- Smart procurement recommendations
|
|
|
|
### Demo Seeding Architecture
|
|
|
|
#### Corrected Service Structure
|
|
The demo seeding has been re-architected to follow the proper service boundaries:
|
|
|
|
1. **Suppliers Service Seeding**
|
|
- `services/suppliers/scripts/demo/seed_demo_suppliers.py`
|
|
- Creates realistic Spanish suppliers with pre-defined UUIDs
|
|
- Includes supplier performance data and price lists
|
|
- No dependencies - runs first
|
|
|
|
2. **Procurement Service Seeding**
|
|
- `services/procurement/scripts/demo/seed_demo_procurement_plans.py`
|
|
- `services/procurement/scripts/demo/seed_demo_purchase_orders.py`
|
|
- Creates procurement plans referencing existing suppliers
|
|
- Generates purchase orders from procurement plans
|
|
- Maintains proper data integrity and relationships
|
|
|
|
#### Seeding Execution Order
|
|
The master seeding script (`scripts/seed_all_demo_data.sh`) executes in the correct dependency order:
|
|
|
|
1. Auth → Users with staff roles
|
|
2. Tenant → Tenant members
|
|
3. Inventory → Stock batches
|
|
4. Orders → Customers
|
|
5. Orders → Customer orders
|
|
6. **Suppliers → Supplier data** *(NEW)*
|
|
7. **Procurement → Procurement plans** *(NEW)*
|
|
8. **Procurement → Purchase orders** *(NEW)*
|
|
9. Production → Equipment
|
|
10. Production → Production schedules
|
|
11. Production → Quality templates
|
|
12. Forecasting → Demand forecasts
|
|
|
|
### Key Benefits of Re-architecture
|
|
|
|
#### 1. Proper Data Dependencies
|
|
- Suppliers exist before procurement plans reference them
|
|
- Procurement plans exist before purchase orders are created
|
|
- Eliminates circular dependencies and data integrity issues
|
|
|
|
#### 2. Service Ownership Clarity
|
|
- Each service owns its domain data
|
|
- Clear separation of concerns
|
|
- Independent scaling and maintenance
|
|
|
|
#### 3. Enhanced Demo Experience
|
|
- More realistic procurement workflows
|
|
- Better supplier relationship modeling
|
|
- Comprehensive procurement analytics
|
|
|
|
#### 4. Improved Performance
|
|
- Reduced inter-service dependencies during cloning
|
|
- Optimized data structures for procurement operations
|
|
- Better caching strategies for procurement data
|
|
|
|
## Implementation Details
|
|
|
|
### Procurement Plans
|
|
The procurement service now generates intelligent procurement plans that:
|
|
- Analyze demand from customer orders and production schedules
|
|
- Consider inventory levels and safety stock requirements
|
|
- Factor in supplier lead times and performance metrics
|
|
- Optimize order quantities based on MOQs and pricing tiers
|
|
- Generate requirements with proper timing and priorities
|
|
|
|
### Purchase Orders
|
|
Advanced PO management includes:
|
|
- Automated approval workflows based on supplier trust scores
|
|
- Smart supplier selection considering multiple factors
|
|
- Quality control checkpoints and delivery tracking
|
|
- Comprehensive reporting and analytics
|
|
- Integration with inventory receiving processes
|
|
|
|
### Supplier Management
|
|
Enhanced supplier capabilities:
|
|
- Detailed performance tracking and rating systems
|
|
- Automated trust scoring based on historical performance

## Technical Implementation
|
|
|
|
### Internal Demo APIs
|
|
Both services expose internal demo APIs for session cloning:
