As a member of the demand planning department in a consumer goods company, one of the key responsibilities is to forecast sales volume accurately. BluePlanner helps streamline this process by providing a clear overview of bottom-up customer forecasts & historical sales data. It aids in organizing and analyzing promotions and produces reports for optimizing future forecasts.
Data analytics from BluePlanner can be used to identify specific products that are more in demand during a particular season, geographic location, or customer group. By analyzing this data, demand planners can adjust their forecasts to better match the target customers, thereby increasing the chances of a successful promotion, which ultimately leads to increased sales volume.
Additionally, BluePlanner can help demand planners collaborate with sales and marketing teams. The system’s automated workflows allow for smarter planning and decision-making, improving communication between departments and different levels of management. This is critical in ensuring that all parties are aware of upcoming promotions and anticipated volume forecasts.
