Supply Chain Strategy and S&OP

Sales & Operations Planning suffers from a fundamental misalignment between sales and operations. Although S&OP facilitates collaboration between the two functions, clear priorities are often missing. That’s why we suggest starting your S&OP journey with a clarification of the company’s competitive strategy to set up long-term expectations. During this webinar, we will cover the following topics: Which type of competitive strategy do you follow? (Operational Excellence, Customer Intimacy, or Product Leadership) What are your most Critical Success Factors? (Price, accessibility, quality, flexibility, …) Should all your products/customers have the same level of service, or should you segment your Supply Chain? (Service Level Agreements) How to translate this into a Supply Chain Strategy and S&OP? (Decoupling Strategy, Network Design, Strategic Sourcing)
