MODULE 1 (Registration from 9:00 am, workshop 9:30 am – 4:00 pm)
Project Preparation & Timeline – Scoping, Best Practices
In this module, we will show how a typical S&OP or IBP project starts. We will discuss the different states of supply chain planning processes, planning KPIs, visions for integrating planning and execution, and linking processes from different departments. As there are different methodologies on the market, the intention is to present some best practice approaches depending on the industry, e.g. CPG, Mill, Life Science.
The following topics will be discussed:
- Why do you need a supply chain maturity assessment?
- What are the most common bottlenecks in the supply chain?
- How can you get your supply chain goals from A to B?
- Project preparation and roadmap of business and IT
- Industry-specific best practice solutions for the digital supply chain
MODULE 2 (9:00 am – 4:00 pm)
IT Implementation & Solutions
In the second module, you will learn how the solutions are implemented. In most cases, this involves the implementation of both business and IT processes. A business process implementation means that some changes are made to the current way of working, resulting in a more efficient one. An IT process implementation, on the other hand, means a new system that is designed to improve the current process. We will cover:
- Implementation of tailor-made IT tools and improvement / adaptation of current processes
- Hands-on presentation of various supply chain requirements
- Demonstration of IBP and S&OP planning tools in use

MODULE 3 (9:00 am – 2:00 pm; wrap-up until 4:00 pm)
Roll-out and Continuous Improvement
The last module covers the preparation of the change management process and its implementation options. A strategy for continuous improvement has to be prepared in order to achieve the company’s long-term goals. As new challenges in the supply chain can arise at any time, companies and IT departments should be able to draw up concrete plans for overcoming them. The following topics are addressed:
- Change management & implementation support
- Strategy for continuous imprvement
- Corporate communication including timeline
- Training plan and creation of a manual
