Sales & Operations Execution (S&OE)
Business Challenges
Managing the day-to-day production and delivery processes of a business is critical. Brands need to meet customer demand while optimizing inventory and production in a short time. They also need to ensure the effective implementation of an integrated supply chain strategy from end to end, in line with their sales objectives and financial targets.
The Sales & Operations Execution processes give businesses access to strategic tools that facilitate short-term planning and real-time adjustments to production and inventory plans. S&OE should ensure better coordination between sales and operations, which allows companies to reduce costs and efficiency in the supply chain. It must also ensure that the production plans developed during S&OP are implemented efficiently and effectively while allowing for timely changes to drive better performance and increase customer satisfaction. By providing companies with a more detailed and tactical view of their production and delivery processes, S&OE helps businesses meet customer demand while optimizing inventory and production.
