One Demand Picture Before the Bake

Bakery Operations needs both shops’ demand in one picture before the Bakehouse sets tomorrow’s bake.

Current Situation

Each shop calls the Bakehouse separately and at no fixed time. The bake plan follows whichever call came first.

Effect

Lines are baked against partial numbers: one shop runs short while the other carries leftovers.

Need

One fixed point each day where the shops’ demand and the Bakehouse’s capacity meet.

Consequences

A shared demand picture lets the Bakehouse plan against real numbers; it also gives cross-team questions a home.
