Overview

This PR implements the DISTRIBUTIONLINC Agent, a comprehensive AI-powered intelligence layer for the Saudi Smart Distribution Platform (SSDP). The agent provides five core AI capabilities specifically designed for distribution operations in the Saudi market, with full bilingual support (Arabic/English) and enterprise-grade security.

Core Capabilities Implemented

1. Demand Forecasting Engine

Predicts future product demand with high accuracy by analyzing:

  • Regional patterns for different Saudi markets (Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, etc.)
  • Seasonal variations (summer/winter peaks)
  • Weather impact on demand
  • Holiday effects (Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, National Day)
  • Trend analysis with confidence scoring
# Example: Generate 30-day demand forecast
forecast = await service.generate_demand_forecast(
    product_id="PROD123",
    region="Riyadh",
    forecast_horizon_days=30
)
# Returns: predicted_quantity, confidence_score, bounds, and influencing factors

2. Dynamic Pricing Optimizer

AI-driven pricing recommendations that maximize revenue while considering:

  • Inventory levels (discount for overstocked, premium for scarce items)
  • Competitor pricing analysis
  • Demand elasticity calculations
  • Revenue impact estimation

Includes approval workflow for pricing changes with role-based access control.

3. Route Intelligence

Optimizes delivery routes for cost and time efficiency:

  • Real-time traffic condition integration
  • Delivery time windows optimization
  • Vehicle capacity planning
  • Multi-stop routing with waypoint optimization
  • Cost calculation (fuel + time)

4. Inventory Orchestrator

Predictive restocking with intelligent automation:

  • Stock depletion prediction (when will items run out)
  • Safety stock calculations
  • Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) recommendations
  • Lead time management
  • Automated PO suggestions for critical items

Risk-based alerts (low, medium, high, critical) help prioritize actions.

5. Customer Churn Prediction

Identifies at-risk customers using RFM analysis:

  • Churn probability calculation (0-100%)
  • Risk factors (recency, frequency, monetary, complaints, payment delays)
  • Personalized retention strategies with cost/success rate estimates
  • Priority scoring (1-5) for high-value customers
  • Action tracking to monitor intervention effectiveness

Technical Implementation

Database Models (6 tables)

  • demand_forecasts - Demand predictions with seasonal factors
  • dynamic_pricing - Pricing recommendations with approval workflow
  • route_optimizations - Optimal delivery routes with traffic analysis
  • inventory_predictions - Stock predictions with PO automation
  • customer_churn_predictions - Churn risk with retention strategies
  • distributionlinc_audit_logs - Complete compliance audit trail

All models support multi-tenant architecture with proper data isolation.

Service Layer

DistributionLincService implements all business logic with production-ready algorithms:

  • Statistical forecasting with confidence intervals
  • Price optimization with bounds checking
  • Pathfinding with traffic consideration
  • EOQ calculations for inventory
  • RFM-based churn scoring

Security & Access Control

Implemented 7 distinct roles with granular permissions:

  • admin - Full access to all capabilities
  • analyst - Forecasting, analytics, read access
  • pricing_manager - Dynamic pricing management
  • logistics_manager - Route and delivery optimization
  • inventory_manager - Stock management, PO automation
  • sales_manager - Churn prediction, customer retention
  • user - Limited read/create access

Added require_role() dependency function for endpoint-level access control.

Bilingual Support (Arabic/English)

Full support for Arabic and English throughout:

  • Request header detection: Accept-Language: ar or Accept-Language: en
  • Bilingual field names: product_name / product_name_ar
  • Error messages in both languages
  • API documentation with bilingual examples

Example response:

{
  "product_name": "Sample Product",
  "product_name_ar": "منتج عينة",
  "region": "Riyadh",
  "region_ar": "الرياض"
}
