Supply Chain Forecasting & Planning: Move On from Microsoft Excel?Jeff Ondria
PREVIEW Surveys of business use of forecasting support tools reveal that Microsoft’s Excel

to tip as organizational size and complexity increase. Sujit provides a comprehensive examination

and then describes the gains and costs of moving up to a best-of-breed planning application.
