Smart Demand Planner
Smart Demand Planner™ is a consensus demand planning and statistical forecasting solution available on Smart’s Inventory Planning and Optimization Platform, Smart IP&O. Smart Demand Planner, powered by the SmartForecasts® Engine, aligns strategic business forecasting at any level of your product hierarchy with granular forecasts of the item mix to improve forecast accuracy. It provides a statistically sound, objective foundation for your sales and operations planning process (S&OP). Smart Demand Planner’s collaborative workbench enables forecast overrides to be applied, imported, reviewed, and approved by authorized users driving the consensus plan. Forecast accuracy is measured, helping ensure that the best possible forecast is delivered to the business at both the aggregate and item mix levels. The result is more efficient sales planning, budgeting, production scheduling, ordering, and inventory planning.

Integrated planning, analytics, and data platform transforming supply chain, revenue, and P&L decision-making at global enterprises for digital age speed and scale. Siloed planning and disconnected decisions – There is a myriad of planning processes in every global company – demand planning, supply chain planning, revenue/commercial planning, product planning, financial planning – all driving different plans and decisions. These planning processes are usually slow, siloed, sequential and so fail to help with the complexity, volatility and scale of the businesses today. At the same time, there is also a lot more data available, both from internal and even more from external sources. Companies also have descriptive analytics, but limited capabilities to learn from all this data and convert it into knowledge to make better and faster decisions.
