Lifecycle Management

Baxter Planning’s Lifecycle Management solution ensures your service supply chain stays ahead of critical product transitions—both at launch and retirement. Using BaxterProphet, the platform forecasts New Product Introductions (NPIs) even without historical demand and guides End-of-Life (EOL) decisions with calculated lifetime buy quantities and repair planning. This enables service organizations to support new products from day one while preventing costly shortages or excess during phase-out periods.

• Improve first-time fix rates by ensuring inventory is in place before new service contracts begin
• Reduce excess inventory by forecasting EOL demand and identifying materials for scrap
• Automate lifecycle transitions with integrated NPI and EOL forecasting across your supply chain
