Webinar:The Power of Integrating Finance into your Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) Process

The Power of Integrating Finance into your Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) Process

Webinar Details

Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) has been widely deployed for over 20 years as a key enabler of balancing supply with demand. S&OP has delivered value but has often been limited to the domain of supply chain functions within a company. Companies are now beginning to understand that supply and demand plans created within S&OP have far greater potential for optimizing the profitability of a business when more closely linked and expanded to other business functions. 

Join us as Fred Bauman, Vice President of Collaboration, Forecasting and Replenishment at JDA Software, discusses new strategies and techniques to integrate the financial function into the overall S&OP process.
