Why is a comprehensive planning tool important for sales planning?
Good sales planning is crucial for a company's strategic orientation in the market. As an elementary part of the supply chain, it must be integrated into all operational processes, and link management and specialist departments with each other. In times of volatile and globalized markets characterized by ever greater product diversity and shorter life cycles, this is a highly complex process. As a consequence, companies need a comprehensive planning tool that enables the management to make the right strategic decisions based on well-founded forecasts and relevant key figures.

success story – Coppenrath & Wiese
Challenges:
- Uncertain planning due to:
- Seasonal fluctuations
- Bottlenecks in production
- Varying products for the German food market

Results:
- Multidimensional demand planning on a weekly basis

Now we are able to track the exact schedules of promotions, which makes our lives a lot easier. With the added-value information, we are now able to recognize effects on our stock planning process and our procurement, so that we can use INFORMs software as an integrated part of our overall planning process."
