Demand Planning
It’s hard to keep our
product hierarchies
aligned with alternate
organizations of the list.
We cannot plan at
SKU level.
Our channel strategy
is makes it hard to
determine where we
should send products
We cannot align our
demand plan with
promotion strategy or
new product launch
process.

World before Anaplan

Solution needed to be easily understood
by account teams
