Planning Optimization Forecast with the customer in mind and develop fully synchronized schedules

Planning and scheduling departments work tirelessly to create the most optimum schedules. However, they do this in silos with little insight or control over how the schedule will evolve during the coming months, and they fail to account for customer strategies other departments consider. The complexities of planning and scheduling will only continue to rise as partnerships and competitive pressures grow.
