Timelines vary significantly by tool type and deployment context. RL-based tools like Phantasma AiPS target a four to six week deployment. Dedicated APS tools for mid-market manufacturers typically take a few months from kickoff to go-live, accounting for ERP integration, master data validation, and planner training. Across the seven tools covered in this guide, timelines range from four to six weeks for RL-based systems to three to six months for the more complex APS platforms.
