Concurrent planning in practice - selection, implementation & RoI
JP Doggett posted a calendar event in Integrated planning
untilThe Covid experience has underlined the importance of agility and being able to adapt to changing circumstances. In many cases, existing S&OP / IBP processes have struggled with a much higher demand for scenarios, cycles having to begin before the previous cycle is finished and a highly unusual operating context requiring decisions to be escalated or reviewed more frequently. How has a concurrent (as opposed to linear or sequential) planning approach helped and what was the journey to from business case to implementation?

JP Doggett posted a topic in Integrated planning
Takeaways and Key Points Participants Chair, JP Doggett, Intent Group Host: Claire Milner, Kinaxis Host; Dave Platt, Kinaxis Intro Volatility is not new. We need a new way to think about SC that enables us to be more agile. Being agile enough to deal with uncertainty is the goal. Is Covid a one off? We don’t know. It's about being ready for what comes. Agile tech, good process, all help prepare companies for what comes. What are the obstacles to dealing with volatility? Being target driven: facing up to the reality. Nobody wants to bring bad news. Pushing f-

untilContinuous enterprise planning / IBP (for current practitioners only) In an era of unprecedented volatility, effective planning is not just more difficult but also more necessary and strategic to optimise working capital through coordinated action. Traditional approaches have not always delivered on the promised outcomes and modern business process approaches are required more than ever. Cloud and emerging technologies connect functions and data in real-time, making the process more agile and responsive to changing circumstances. This discussion will explore: inherently d
