#Bullwhip Effect MCP Servers

A manufacturer asked an AI to plan seasonal inventory. The AI said 'maintain adequate stock levels.' No forecast model. No EOQ. No safety stock. No supplier diversification. No bullwhip mitigation. Ordered on gut feel from a single Shenzhen supplier, shipped by air because 'urgent,' and watched demand amplify through three echelons until the warehouse held 340% of actual demand. This tool forces five axes: demand forecasting, inventory optimization, supplier risk diversification, logistics cost-per-unit analysis, and bullwhip effect mitigation.

Quantify demand amplification and identify instability patterns in supply chains.
