A product’s life doesn’t end at launch — most of its value is decided in what comes after. Managed by cavalis. Powered by Metis.

What cavalis runs

We run the two phases where margin is made.

Growth and decline are most of a product’s life — and where profit is won, defended and harvested. cavalis manages them end to end: performance, pricing, variants, phase-outs, succession. Everything before launch your PLM already handles.

The gap we close

A product’s life doesn’t end when it ships.
Most of its value is decided after.

Growth and decline are where margin is won or lost — and the one stretch no system was built to manage.

After launch

Hundreds of decisions. Always on.

Growth and decline generate a constant stream of decisions across every SKU — the kind that’s easy to let slip between bigger priorities. Metis works them autonomously: monitoring, prioritizing and surfacing the calls worth your attention, around the clock.

Metis

Hundreds of decisions, every day. Metis runs the portfolio autonomously — surfacing what matters, prioritizing the calls worth making and prepping each one for you.

How Metis works · 01

Your data lives in silos.

Procurement, production and sales each hold one slice of every product — and none of them the whole picture.

Metis decomposes the bill of materials and links every part, variant and finished good into a single portfolio model.

Raw records turn into portfolio intelligence — connecting what your ERP keeps siloed, with more than SAP able to plug in.

Above the knowledge layer, Metis flags, prioritises and drives the calls that protect margin across the portfolio.

Manage the life you’re missing.
