Individual, mostly cost-based targets of independent functional departments lead to silo-like optimization and mutual interference within the organization due to contradictory and misleading target values for KPIs.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for this is usually a lack of understanding that the criteria for what makes information relevant, differs in the operative, tactical and strategic planning area. Forecasts, for example, are required for long-term planning, but actual customer demands are decisive in the short term.<\/p><div id=\"great-2382727997\" class=\"great-fullsize-content-en great-entity-placement\" style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=6ZGXMPyM-nU\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"banner_26-04_29_1200x150\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26-04_29_1200x150-1.jpg\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26-04_29_1200x150-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26-04_29_1200x150-1-400x50.jpg 400w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26-04_29_1200x150-1-768x96.jpg 768w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26-04_29_1200x150-1-100x13.jpg 100w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26-04_29_1200x150-1-480x60.jpg 480w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26-04_29_1200x150-1-640x80.jpg 640w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26-04_29_1200x150-1-720x90.jpg 720w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26-04_29_1200x150-1-960x120.jpg 960w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26-04_29_1200x150-1-1168x146.jpg 1168w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26-04_29_1200x150-1-18x2.jpg 18w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26-04_29_1200x150-1-600x75.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" width=\"1200\" height=\"150\"  style=\" max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>The consideration of fixed costs, for example via key performance indicators such as OEE, is also relevant in strategic planning, but leads to sub-optimal decisions in the operational counterpart.

Flow was recognized as the most important and highest goal that is conflict-free. In turn, flow neither promotes variability nor silo optimization. Therefore, Flow Metrics are key performance indicators that consistently support the flow of relevant information and materials.<\/p>\n<p>For this purpose, only information relevant to the respective decision-making process is included and conflicts of interest are consistently eliminated. Flow Metrics take into account, for example, that neither revenues nor full costs are relevant in day-to-day operations, but rather the throughput\u2014especially in the case of bottlenecks in the supply chain.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Grafik-Camelot-Flow-Metrics.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-48388\" title=\"Flow metrics - integral part of implementation\" src=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Grafik-Camelot-Flow-Metrics.jpg\" alt=\"Graphic Camelot Flow Metrics\" width=\"1000\" height=\"302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Grafik-Camelot-Flow-Metrics.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Grafik-Camelot-Flow-Metrics-768x232.jpg 768w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Grafik-Camelot-Flow-Metrics-100x30.jpg 100w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Grafik-Camelot-Flow-Metrics-480x145.jpg 480w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Grafik-Camelot-Flow-Metrics-640x193.jpg 640w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Grafik-Camelot-Flow-Metrics-720x217.jpg 720w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Grafik-Camelot-Flow-Metrics-960x290.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a>Freedom from conflict<\/h3>\n<p>The transition to flow-based performance management does not necessarily dictate that all previous KPIs need to be replaced. However, potential conflicts must be eliminated, and the availability of relevant information ensured at all stages of the decision-making process. Camelot has established a structured approach and, based on the experience from various projects, put together a set of established Flow Metrics. These are also an integral part of all SAP-based Camelot solutions for Demand-Driven Supply Chain Management, where they optimally support decisions through intuitive and target-oriented visualizations.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/partners\/camelot-itlab-gmbh\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11359 size-full\" title=\"Flow metrics - integral part of implementation\" src=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/CI-CAMELOT.jpg\" alt=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/partners\/camelot-itlab-gmbh\/\" width=\"1000\" height=\"112\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/CI-CAMELOT.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/CI-CAMELOT-768x86.jpg 768w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/CI-CAMELOT-100x11.jpg 100w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/CI-CAMELOT-480x54.jpg 480w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/CI-CAMELOT-640x72.jpg 640w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/CI-CAMELOT-720x81.jpg 720w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/CI-CAMELOT-960x108.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/1807_Coverstory_web.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-37442 size-full\" title=\"Flow metrics - integral part of implementation\" src=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Download-Coverstory.jpg\" alt=\"Download cover story\" width=\"1000\" height=\"125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Download-Coverstory.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Download-Coverstory-768x96.jpg 768w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Download-Coverstory-100x13.jpg 100w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Download-Coverstory-480x60.jpg 480w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Download-Coverstory-640x80.jpg 640w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Download-Coverstory-720x90.jpg 720w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Download-Coverstory-960x120.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1807_CamelotITLab_JIT_agile_demand-driven.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PDF in English<\/a><\/h2>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To efficiently meet customer requirements, Demand-Driven Supply Chain Management must be designed to ensure that materials are delivered to the right place at the right time and that relevant information is available for planning and implementation.
