11th Edition Advancing S&OP to Integrated Business Planning
This premium marcus evans conference will help companies to achieve the transition from S&OP to IBP by incorporating financial analysis and market research to gain competitive advantage. Cross-industry experts will deliver practical case studies on how they have successfully anticipated changes early to stay ahead of the competition and aligned planning processes with the business strategy through full cross-functional integration. Delegates will also benefit from exploring the best practices for sharing data efficiently among different business functions to forecast demand and analyse where the market is going in order to take their company into the future.
With advanced S&OP/IBP processes companies can identify performance and budgeting gaps early to enable sustainable growth and improve profitability by matching plans throughout the business to the latest information inside and outside of the company, thus ensuring one company agenda, with one set of priorities, and managed through one integrated set of figures. Without well orchestrated S&OP/IBP companies are facing discontinuation issues, struggling to cope with market volatility and will not be able to manage budget gaps, operate efficiently on a global level, improve their service and become more profitable.
