Greater planning accuracy thanks to integrated process analysis
Yesterday: silo thinking and Excel lists. Today: integrated corporate planning.
In manufacturing companies, the "mother of all planning" is the coordination between customer demand and production planning.
This includes:
- Sales Forecast (Demand Trends, Campaigns, New Products, Discontinued Items, New Customers)
- Mapping of demand from a production perspective (work plans, bills of materials, capacities, materials logistics)
- Coordinated supply plan including capacity adjustments, optimal lot sizes, and inventory metrics
- Analysis of financial effects of the two reconciled plans on the income statement and balance sheet
Basic parameters for a functioning sales & operations planning (S&OP) are assumptions about capacities, processing times and availabilities.
The integration of process mining into planning not only enables the monitoring of the planning workflow. Rather, theoretical assumptions can be verified and corrected through the ongoing analysis of the underlying operational processes. Planning has never been closer to reality.
