Next-Generation Commercial Planning
What is the key care-about of P&L owners, Regional Markets, Sales Owners in every monthly and weekly business plan review? Hitting the plan. And in this respect, gap closure to the plan is the focus? How are companies doing this today? As is status: organizations detect gaps based on shipments vs. revenue budgets – but they don’t have capabilities to monitor and correlate leading indicators/drivers to shipment performance. As a result, detection of problems is late, and often wrong counter measures are taken. Best practices Commercial Planning has to be a strong part of IBP vs. being only supply chain centric. And it should have the following key capabilities: -Real time Market Sensing of leading indicators and demand drives, sell-out/POS data for companies that sell through retail channels and competitive Product Ratings, Assortment, Pricing, Promotion data Opportunity -Pipeline visibility from your CRM system -Localized Customer/consumer demographics data Learn more about Analytics powered Insights into 3Ws questions by absorbing above data into a Knowledge Model – “EKG” of o9: –

S&OE with CT
Control Tower? War Rooms? Demand and Supply Sensors? What does this really mean and how do we drive value? Common challenges in your supply chain are demand surges (unexpected spikes in demand), shipment delays, and production delays (strikes, unplaned and planned maintenance, etc.) Most likely, in today’s world, you cannot sense those demand and supply disruptions, resulting in a reactive supply chain often in a continuous fire fight stage. But what if we could turn this around? What if we could have your sales organization connected to your entrprise planning platform through mobile apps to provide real-time responses to demand surge scenarios? What if we could sense supply disruptions based on IoT data, market reports, and the conversation of unstructured data sources (e.g. commodity procurement reports)? Yes, if that is possible, we could start shaping demand in real-time and optimizing our supply chain performance considerably. Learn more about how technology can enable this process, and how you turn your supply chain in a prescriptive machine (yes you read this right, we do not only turn your supply chain into a proactive machine, we take this one step further and provide prescriptive actions).
