Main features

Demand planning

  • Consensus Demand Planning: collaborative, multi-dimensional demand planning across Sales, Marketing, and Finance, covering Region, Channel, Customer, and Product dimensions.

  • One-number consensus: a single Consensus Demand Plan derived from the Demand Type hierarchy, progressing from baseline and functional adjustments (Finance, Sales, Marketing) through to the Reconciled and Approved Plan.

  • Forecast accuracy KPIs: includes MAPE (Consensus and Baseline Forecast Error %) as well as Forecast Confidence % and Weighted Confidence %.

Supply review

  • Demand-Supply Reconciliation: supports Demand Planner adjustments and demand-versus-supply balancing once total capacity has been determined.

  • Material Feasibility Detail: material availability and component shortage identification.

  • BOM Calculator: automatically performs multi-level BOM explosion, calculates material requirements and feasible units, and consolidates shared components across products.

Executive S&OP

  • Scenario Simulation: creates and compares Conservative, Consensus, and Aggressive scenarios within the Demand Scenario cube.

  • Executive Decision: supports executive review, demand-supply reconciliation, and a single-number commitment, with the Approved Plan written back from the Scenario cube.

  • Financial Impact: evaluates the revenue, cost, and margin implications of each scenario side by side.

Data model

  • New cubes: Demand (core transaction cube), Demand Scenario (structurally identical to Demand plus the Scenario dimension), BOM.

  • Cube rules for the Demand and Demand Scenario cubes.

Workflow & Governance

  • End-to-end workflows covering forecast submission, review, and approval.

  • Defined demand ownership and structured process governance.
