This MCP server provides tools to reconcile project requirements with physical inventory. It calculates the Available-to-Promise (ATP) quantity by accounting for reserved stock and handles unit conversions. Use calculate_material_gap to identify shortages and determine the exact purchase quantity needed based on package sizes, or get_material_availability to check current stock levels and commitments.

Check if we have enough cement for project PROJ-101. We need 50 bags.

There is a shortage of 12 bags for project PROJ-101. You need to purchase 12 more bags to meet the requirement.

What is the current availability for material MAT-99?

Material MAT-99 has a total inventory of 500 units, with 100 units currently reserved. The available-to-promise quantity is 400 units.

List all materials required for project REQ-500.

Project REQ-500 requires: 50 units of Steel (MAT-01), 20 units of Concrete (MAT-05), and 10 units of Gravel (MAT-09).

The `calculate_material_gap` tool subtracts all reserved stock from the total inventory to find the Available-to-Promise quantity. If the project requirement is higher than this amount, a shortage is reported.
