Collaboration: always critical but never easy

Planning can be disjointed and disconnected

Multiple stakeholders, shifting demands, and fluctuating supply can make planning feel like a juggling act. Without the right sales and operations planning (S&OP) process and current high-quality data, companies often see suboptimal outcomes due to knowledge gaps, silos, and incentive conflicts. Including external trading partner data in the S&OP process to improve demand and supply visibility is another concern. Once finalized, the next challenge is to seamlessly push the plan into execution and monitor performance to keep everything on track.

Modernize your supply chain with profitable plans that balance demand, supply, and financial goals.

Accelerate decision making

Visibility and decision support help you make informed decisions faster and with greater flexibility.

Integrate with sales and finance

Shorten S&OP cycle times

By automating data gathering and processing, the application helps converge planning and execution.

Improve forecast accuracy

Machine learning algorithms help to produce more accurate forecasts and improve planner productivity.

Model opportunities and risks

Strategic what-if scenario analyses enable you to model revenue opportunities, volatility risks, and supply alternatives.

Simplify collaboration

Stakeholders can easily create consensus demand forecasts and reconcile constrained or unconstrained plans with financial goals.

Having visibility to the supply chain gives us and our suppliers the opportunity to plan. We talk about planning its capacity, its resources, its material—and it helps with the cost as well by having all those elements tied together.
