Smart Demand Planner Description
Smart Demand Planner™, a consensus-based demand planning and statistical forecasting tool, is available on Smart's Inventory Planning and Optimization platform, Smart IP&O. Smart Demand Planner, powered the SmartForecasts®, Engine, combines strategic business forecasting at all levels of your product hierarchy with granular forecasts for the item mix to improve forecast accuracy. It provides a solid, objective foundation for your sales- and operations planning (S&OP). Smart Demand Planner's collaborative workbench allows for forecast overrides to apply, import, review, and be approved by authorized users who are responsible for the consensus plan. Forecast accuracy can be measured to ensure the best forecast is delivered to the business at both aggregate and item mix levels. This results in more efficient sales planning, budgeting and production scheduling, as well as ordering and inventory planning.
