frePPLe: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

frePPLe is open-source software for advanced planning and scheduling in manufacturing and supply chains. It is aimed at organisations that currently license commercial planning suites such as SAP IBP or Kinaxis. The software is installed and run on the organisation's own infrastructure. The maintainer also offers an enterprise edition and a hosted cloud edition.

The software is developed and sold by frePPLe bv, a Belgian company. The Community Edition is released under the MIT licence, and the GitHub repository is actively maintained, with commits from October 2026. The materials name no parent company. They do not state where the hosted cloud edition stores data, or whether that service is covered by a GDPR commitment. A European organisation can run the Community Edition on its own infrastructure, so data stays outside any vendor cloud.
