About Manhattan S&OP
Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) ensures all key internal stakeholders across the enterprise can align the near-term inventory plan with their current operating and financial constraints. Manhattan’s S&OP empowers businesses to adjust an inventory plan in one fluid, aggregate motion when a resource or financial constraints drive the need for a change. With S&OP, you can quickly consolidate the organization’s top-down sales and inventory plans with current demand from demand forecasting and order forecasts from replenishment to formulate a single view of the impact of inventory across the enterprise. And, the solution facilitates inventory alignment by allowing key users to manipulate the sales and inventory portions of the plan based on feedback from other areas of the business. Monitor alignment of the enterprise’s financial plan with the upcoming demand forecast and projected inventory levels.
