Insight
Multiple planners can see business results as they are input and updates made.
Democratization of planning with self-service by business leaders (sales operations, marketing, finance, operations leaders, logistics, and procruement teams.)
The large numbers of planners in global organizations increases process latency.
PLANNING MASTER DATA
The collapse of planning horizions into one planning period.
Synchronization with intelligent, role-based consumption logic across planning horizons.
There is a need for planning outside and inside lead time with different goals and work processes. Organizations became more reactive during the pandemic, focusing on the operational periods within lead time. However, the greatest business results occur when decisions are made outside of lead time in the strategic and tactical planning horizions.
Making decisions across make and deliver together.
The orchestration levers can be pulled across commercial, operations, sourcing, and logistics teams in bi-directional orchestration.
The design and agreement on orchestration levers tie S&OP planning (tactical horizon) to an effective S&OP executional planning horizon.
