Value Chain Planning -Strategic Planning

Many smaller businesses miss out on the features and capabilities that a Demand Planning function can bring - holistically filling the gap between Strategic Planning, Financial Planning, and Operations. Demand Planning is the sweet spot for this service but we have found supply planning, advanced S&OP reporting and inventory management all can be outsourced productively.

The Need for Demand Planning and how it plugs the vacuum between financial planning and operations

This is a key reason Valtitude/Demand Planning LLC started offering outsourced planning in 2015.

Many mid-market companies do not have a well-defined demand planning function. Typically the commercial team does a forecast at the brand level for their own target setting purposes. The Sales team may have an order based forecast for meeting their sales targets. The Marketing team may actually decide on the production targets working with the supply planners.
