Sales and Operations Planning

The Sales and Operation Planning course teaches a management team a formal process of balancing supply and demand on a monthly basis to insure the appropriate operating resources are in place to take advantage of the “best” marketplace opportunities.  The course provides the method to successfully implement an integrated management process that gives the general manager and his or her team a practical and effective way to improve control of the entire business.  Converting the Sales and Operations Planning process from an informal to a formal way of managing, provides immediate and tangible financial benefits.  It makes the source of excess inventory, out-of-balance capacity, long customer lead times, lack of flexibility and excess costs more visible.  It provides an excellent forum to pull together all departments and allow them to arrive at a one cohesive game plan for everyone in the company to follow.
