<p>A computer-implemented method for fulfillment in a distributed supply chain environment includes receiving an available-to-promise (ATP)(30) request comprising a plurality of request line-items each corresponding to a desired product, and generating one or more component ATP requests (32) using at least one rule and based on the request line-items. At least one of the rules identifies a sourcing constraint associated with a customer. The method also includes communication the component ATP requests to at least one supplier associated with the desired product. The supplier is determined according to at least one rule identifying the sourcing constraint. The method further includes receiving a plurality component quotations (34) from at least one supplier, each component quotation correspond to a component ATP request and comprising product availability information for one or more corresponding desired products, and generating a quotation (36) for communication using the product availability information and at least one contract value associated with a current status of a contract involving the customer.</p> |
