Sales and Operations Planning, or S&OP, is a key planning process that seeks to
balance supply and demand, linking strategy with operations. LLamasoft’s S&OP Solution
goes much further than simple “balancing”—using Supply Chain Guru as the planning
and optimization engine, S&OP can become a key driver for optimizing resource utilization
and maximizing Return on Assets.
Optimization on very large models can be performed quickly and easily, and LLamasoft’s
S&OP Solution is easily integrated with the numerous, disparate data sources throughout
the enterprise. With data streams linked directly to SAP, Oracle, custom databases,
or even desktop spreadsheets, the S&OP Solution is always running with the latest
data.

LLamasoft’s unique Model-Based Planning approach far surpasses other, more naïve
approaches to S&OP. While other apps can keep data current through similar data
connections, LLamasoft’s S&OP Solution addresses the much more difficult challenge
of maintaining a current planning model by enabling users to take models off line
and analyze “what-if” scenarios. In this way S&OP moves from being a reactive method
of allocating capacity to a truly proactive capability to unlock the power of true
forward looking strategic planning.
