Sporting Goods Leader Strives for a Best-in-Class Supply Chain
April 7, 2016
Solution: A companywide integrated business planning (IBP) initiative coupled with the deployment of Demand Solutions' supply chain planning suite to support the new IBP process.
Results: The combination of the Integrated Business Planning (IBP) process and Demand Solutions' Supply Chain Planning Suite provides a single source of the truth across the company. Separate systems, used by 22 business units, including the demand planners, supply planners, and finance and marketing functions were consolidated into one shared IBP system. The results included significant time savings in the monthly planning and forecasting processes. Numerous manual processes were eliminated. Despite their robust revenue growth, no additional headcount was needed. Faster purchases, more accurate buys, increased forecast accuracy and reduced stock-outs were achieved.
