The Problem? Planning
Processes Haven’t Kept Pace
Fragmented demand silos result in
missed signals and too many
missed opportunities
Shotgun promotions and wedge
assortments based on store size &
volume are no longer sufficient
Plans are developed without
accounting for supply chain
capacities and constraints
Disjointed waterfall planning
processes bound by seasons no
longer keep pace with consumers

Hence, Many Are Struggling…
“Why are my forecasts always
so far off?”
“My inventory turns are lethargic.”
“Who are my best customers and how
do I figure out what they want?”
“I can’t react to market changes
quickly enough.”
“Why are my plans never executed
as they were written?”
“Why have my costs to serve really
skyrocketed recently?”
“My stores are rarely, if ever, on
time with planogram updates.”
