Sales and Operation Planning
13/07/2012
Sales and operation planning or S&OP is a method of consolidating several business objectives into one integrated business plan.
By enabling better forward planning, using one set of metrics, S&OP brings benefits to all areas of a business from sales through to manufacturing.
The processes involved in sales and operation planning are aimed at streamlining the supply chain. This type of business planning enables reconciliation of supply and demand, allowing logistics requirements to be planned into the long-term.
S&OP can cover all areas of a business; including sales, procurement, supply chain and manufacturing. The consolidated business plans supplied provide better linking up of business areas, improved transparency and cost savings.
