This document discusses Freescale Semiconductor's efforts to implement a "one version of the truth" approach to sales and operations planning (S&OP). Previously, Freescale had disconnected planning processes that resulted in multiple inconsistent versions of demand and supply plans. To address this, Freescale integrated their tactical planning systems into their S&OP process to create common inputs and planning tools. This improved consistency and reduced manual work. While benefits have been achieved, opportunities remain to further optimize areas like scenario planning, planning cycle times and executive-level S&OP meetings. The ultimate goal is to increase supply chain agility through more accurate, timely planning and decision making.
