Demand Planning & S&OP

When forecasts are wrong, everything downstream suffers: too much stock in one place, empty shelves in another and trucks running half full.

We help businesses forecast demand more accurately and run a sales and operations planning (S&OP) process that gets sales, finance and operations working from the same numbers.

  • Inventory policySafety stock, reorder points and service-level targets by product.
  • Sales and operations planning (S&OP)A monthly process that agrees one plan across the business.
  • Supply planningLining up production, purchasing and distribution with the agreed plan.
  • Planning KPIsForecast accuracy, stock cover and service levels you can track month to month.
