Sales and Operations Planning

Good intermediate planning requires the coordination of demand forecasts with functional areas of a firm and its supply chain. And because each functional part of a firm and the supply chain has its own limitations and constraints, the coordination can be difficult. This coordinated planning effort has evolved into a process known as sales and operations planning (S&OP). As Figure 13.2 shows, S&OP receives input from a variety of sources both internal and external to the firm. Because of the diverse inputs, S&OP is typically done by cross-functional teams that align the competing constraints.
