Client Problem
No Demand Planning process or technical system coordinating information existed between client and its members/suppliers - only spreadsheet-based, manual data/information sharing.
SCMC Solution
SCM Connections designed and rolled out a complete end-to-end Demand Planning process, and configured and implemented IBP Demand and Control Tower to support new process including IBP web-planning collaboration with both members and suppliers.
Results
Increased visibility to member and supplier performance on KPIs. Eliminated need for spreadsheet tracking. Regulated Demand Planning cadence by shifting to 4-week recurring process calendar. Gained access to statistical forecasting and real-time data. Streamlined data/information sharing and improved collaboration with client members and suppliers.
