Accelerated
Demand Planning  |
|
The Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) industry
is challenged to reduce costs while carrying
enough inventory to meet customer demand.
Streamlining and automating the demand planning
processes using a demand planning system is
the key to achieving this balance. However,
most mid-sized CPG companies typically need
more than six months to implement a demand
planning system. As a result, time to value
extends into the future, while the risk of
a failed implementation from constantly changing
requirements significantly increases.
Leveraging our domain expertise in demand
planning, Bristlecone has developed an accelerated
demand planning framework (Accelerated DP
or ADP), which dramatically shrinks the time
needed to begin realizing benefits from a
demand planning initiative from six months
to about six weeks.
This radical improvement is the result of
several Bristlecone innovations:
•
A business blueprint based on best practices
in demand
planning
from Bristlecone’s extensive global
experience with
CPG
organizations, and modeled within the context
of SAP
Demand Planning solution
•
A pre-built Bristlecone solution of SAP Demand
Planning for
CPG
clients, which contains pre-built maps to
extract demand
history from external systems or using standard
interfaces with
SAP BW and which allows rapid identification
and resolution
of gaps.
•
Pre-packaged reports and analytics designed
specifically for
the CPG organizations
With experience in implementing demand planning
and other supply chain management solutions
for globally recognized CPG leaders such as
Unilever, Nestle, Nike, Pennzoil and others,
as well as deep expertise in SAP Demand Planning
solutions, Bristlecone is well positioned
to assist mid-sized organizations in rapidly
implementing demand planning solutions.
