Abstract

The present invention relates to master resource planning systems and methods for optimizing resource plans across multiple networks. In particular, the present invention optimizes constrained resources across multiple networks and produces an optimized plan to allocate and coordinate the obtaining, shipping and procurement of limited resources based on user-defined strategies and supplier/shipper (502) preferences. Planning data and planning rules are created. Planning data contains information regarding constrained resources in the networks. Planning rules are based on user-defined strategies. Additional aspects include generating a plan based on the planning data and planning rules and revising in real-time. The generated plan optimally allocates the constrained resources according to the user-defined strategies. Certain embodiments empty pegging strategies for handling over and under availability of demanded resources among orders. Other embodiments optimize the procurement of shipping lag times, established transportation schedules, and carrier preferences.
