Global Durable Coolers Company
This company keeps their cool with integrated S&OP and Oracle E-Business Suite.
With specific requirements such as safety stock generation based on demand variability and the ability to perform exception-based planning, this company needed assurance that S&OP was not put on ice.
The Challenges
The Client needed to develop a global demand planning model that could generate a baseline statistical forecast for their demand planning and S&OP process cycles. Previously their demand planning solution relied on spreadsheets and sales managers to generate and maintain the demand plan. Experiencing rapid growth, it needed a more robust demand planning business process and an application that could generate a statistical forecast as a starting point to the process. S&OP was to replace the existing solution and integrate seamlessly into Oracle ASCP and Oracle EBS.
The ArganoCSS Approach
ArganoCSS with its strong Oracle VCP skills and knowledge of Client’s business and systems provided project management guidance and led all aspects of the S&OP implementation, technical and functional, as well as strategic transformation within the organization.
The Results
The Client continues to work hard every day to innovate and provide the best quality products available. The S&OP solution allows them to continue their growth objectives because it will scale with the business as they grow while providing them a standardized demand planning process across its lines of business. The solution eliminates time-consuming manual data loads and manipulation and provides a statistical engine to generate an initial demand plan.
What our client says
“With help from ArganoCSS, we were able to eliminate spreadsheets and adopt an integrated S&OP solution that is scalable to meet our future demand planning needs.”
