Along with the most appropriate approaches and methodologies, this research outlines the factors and findings affecting incorrect consumption measures and investigates its impact on planning to reach correct consumption measures. In order to reach this correct measure, this project proposes a Business Solution Process Model and an IT system ‘Smart Purchase-Order Materials Planning System’ with the most appropriate tools and technologies, which will eradicate all issues relating to incorrect consumption measures.

The system will also be further developed as per recommendations, to generate a revenue along with further modifications by releasing it to the market, since there are no existing systems to perform in-depth forecasting of material consumption.
