The role of the General Manager is like the Conductor

The Conductor is there …first of all for the oversimplified reason of being the traffic cop, making sure everyone is playing at the same speed and the same volume.

The Original S&OP Process as implemented by many companies

• All about demand & supply• An attempt to achieve one number• Operations led• Pushing it up to senior management• Lacking technology tools• Planning horizon too short

PerformanceMonitoring

FinancialImpact &Analysis

• Review global performance outlook and differences between business strategy, budget and forecast

• Reconcile gaps between new activities, demand, supply and financial targets

• Highlight impact of changes (units and financials), gaps, opportunities and major integration issues over a 2 Year-end horizon

• Develop scenarios considering the interdependencies and trade-offs that drive overall business performance

• Redirect issues that should have been resolved elsewhere, in line with organisational accountabilities

• Make recommendations and/or decisions for alternatives with business impacts for each

• Elevate to senior management major issues and opportunities still requiring resolution

Focus on Change

• It is very important that the S&OP process focus on what is changing and facilitate the change

• The questions are:– What has changed?– Do we agree with the changes?– Do we understand the impact of the changes?– Are there any alternatives?– What decisions need to be made?

Decisions Made During this Cycle 1. Strategy about Widget II Demo units is

that new builds will take priority unless otherwise defined by US Sales and Marketing leadership.

Decisions Required –Recommendations & Costs

1. For the remaining Wigit II Demo units we need to decide if additional material be purchased for remanufacturing.

Major Assumptions (In Data)1. Widget II Launch schedule

US IVD Clearance – estimated Sep 06Japan Registration approved to sell Canto II in August.China and Taiwan registration estimated by end of FY07

2. Based on current inventory and open purchase orders the assumption is that the current Widget supply will satisfy current demand of 48 units (Aug 06 to Aug 07). No additional demand can be satisfied.

Risks and Opportunities –Not in Data

1. High volume for Widget lines still causing serious constraints in test.

2. Chassis availability for Widget II is still an issue. Supplier concern about meeting current requirements for September.

Major Changes this Cycle (In Data) 1. Last Month’s statement (Current Widget I Demand from July to

August 07 is 45 units. No additional Widget I can be built based on material availability.)

2. Europe increased Widget II demand by 16 units for the period of August and September.

Emerging Issues and Gaps –In Data

1. Widget II mix is still not stable and could create supply issues.

2. Production still unable to meet plan. Production resources will be stretched in September.

What are you trying to determine with each scenario?

• Will it solve the business plan problem or take advantage of an opportunity?

• What will it do to profitability?• What will it do to market share?• Can I accomplish it with my resources?• Is the risk worth it?• What did we learn from looking at these scenarios?

Scenario Planning

• Each scenario that you are exploring should therefore be defined by a set of assumptions in order to meet your business goals

• A different scenario would be to define a different set of assumptions

• Scenario planning does not make the decision for you, it enables you to make a more informed decision

Scenario Planning is here

• The tools are emerging• Some companies are utilizing scenario planning well• We will see more companies performing scenario planning

as they learn how to do it and begin to use the new tools

Real examples of S&OP Scenario Planning

Routine (seen often)• Examine the bounds of next year’s operating plan• Testing impacts of current year’s plan• Tweaking S&OP plan on new news

Anticipatory (planning for reasonable events)• Estimating impact of a strike on the “stuffing business”• Determining optimal seasonal pre-build• Hedging on inventory due to limited (unresponsive) capacity for NPI• Developing OB based on three different potential views of product mix

Real examples of S&OP Scenario Planning

Reactive (often as a result of extreme unplanned event)• Re-sourcing output of 3 Gulf Coast mfg facilities after Katrina • Re-planning both global supply and demand after loss of several key

raw ingredients due to Japanese tsunami• (Re)-planning of constrained capacity after Wal-Mart listing change

Optima• Re-sourcing customer distribution network after facility shut down• Planning secondary source of supply for critical raw ingredient• Determining outsourced vs. expanded co-owned manufacturing• Make buy now or later decisions based on commodity prices

Challenges with S&OP Scenario Planning

• Not common place– Misunderstanding of the role of scenarios within S&OP – “Let’s just do the S&OP cycle more frequently”

• Transfer of S&OP plan and ‘directions’ weak– Usually due to poor implementation of S&OP process

• Conversion to tactical/execution planning poor – Directions, guideposts, rarely translated to tactical implications– Realistic supply chain parameters not used– Plan not vetted through supply chain planning or scenario tools

• Sensing mechanisms not available– Sensing measures not developed – Lack of consistent assumption capture

35Copyright © 2012 Pat Bower . All Rights Reserved.

Challenges With “existing” S&OP Tools

• Excel is not an S&OP solution– Never detailed enough - not sustainable as an enterprise platform– Aggregation and Disaggregation is a major issue– Quality of Capacity #’s is a persistent problem– No/Limited scenario planning

• Synthesizing tools– Don’t provide integrated “planning” platform

• Connection to planning tools is dependent on linkages– Offer slicing and dicing and a nice “presentation” layer– Not a bottoms-up tool– Very rough cut view of capacity– No/Limited scenario planning

36Copyright © 2012 Pat Bower . All Rights Reserved.

Challenges With “Existing” S&OP Tools

• LPs are wonderful if you have PhDs on staff– Good for strategic planning– Often lack heuristics – Difficult to keep current– Difficult to interpret results– Real Life: Food / Dessert company examples used LPs often

• Difficult to keep it current and interpret results

• ERP’s are rarely best of breed planning tools– Cannot handle major assumptions changes / save of scenarios– Change can be very slow in coming – Real Life: Beverage company created “test” or simulation ERP

environment to run scenarios, but iteration was VERY difficult

Emerging Technology for S&OP?

• The promise of Moore’s law being realized for S&OP• Dynamic businesses require responsive supply chains• Speed of response is important

Which Features of S&OP Tools are Important?

Planning• Volume & Mix planning for realistic S&OP plans• Accurate “testable” simulation – back”castable”• Adjust both demand and supply• Current plan as baseline scenario• Multiple type of forecast consumption logic

Utility• Aggregate/Disaggregate different supply and demand profiles

– class of trade, dollars/units, capacity families, etc• Priorities by customer, product, product group• Ease of navigation• Build relevant categories and sub-categories

Metrics• Pre-packaged alerts/metrics

– Customized “sensing / altering” metrics
