Implementing S&OP not by the book

Revolutionising S&OP: Beyond the Standard Playbook

Join us for SCM Webinar Wednesday and explore how to implement Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) in a way that drives tangible results. In this interactive session, “Implementing S&OP Not by the Book,” Martijn Lofvers, CEO and Chief Trendwatcher of Supply Chain Media, examines how to adapt this critical supply chain process to align with the complexities of today’s business environment.

Many organisations rely on traditional S&OP frameworks, but standard models often fail to address the challenges posed by volatile demand patterns, fragmented supply networks, and global disruptions. To create a truly integrated supply chain, companies need more than theoretical guidelines — they need an approach tailored to their unique realities.

SCM Webinar Wednesday

This 60-minute webinar provides actionable insights on how to optimise your S&OP processes to deliver end-to-end visibility, alignment, and resilience. Led by industry experts, the session will cover:

• Challenges of conventional S&OP: Understand why rigid, one-size-fits-all frameworks don’t align with the dynamic nature of modern supply chains.
• Customising S&OP: Learn to align demand planning, inventory management, and production schedules with business goals.
• Breaking silos: Explore strategies for fostering cross-functional collaboration between procurement, operations, sales, and finance.
• Technology enablement: Discover how tools like advanced planning systems (APS) and data analytics enhance decision-making.
• Case studies: Real-world examples of organisations that adapted S&OP for superior service levels and improved supply chain agility.

This webinar is essential for supply chain professionals aiming to improve forecast accuracy, optimise working capital, and achieve greater customer satisfaction. Whether you’re grappling with balancing supply and demand, managing multi-echelon inventory, or navigating market uncertainty, this session will equip you with the strategies needed to overcome these challenges.
