Business Technical SolutionUpdate Quintiq S&OP MacroPlanner

In a previous post, I had talked about our DELMIA Quintiq Production Planning solutions and their capabilities in Hotmill Scheduling.   However, with today’s post, we take a short moment to talk about one of DELMIA Quintiq’s Supply Chain Planning solutions, Macro Planner.

In short, Macro Planner allows a planner to support/optimize their business’ supply planning process.

Here are some of the capabilities that the Macro Planner solution offers:

• Supply chain design
• Interfacing & validating data
• Supply performance review through the comparison between actuals and planned values.
• Manual supply planning on production and distribution processes
• Optimized supply planning on production and distribution processes
• Safety stock computation
• Campaign planning
• Blending
• Demand management
• Scenario management and comparison
• Handling workflow
• Financial impact analysis
• Report generation

That’s a lot of capabilities!  By implementing a Macro Planner solution, a customer can experience the following benefits:

• Increased fulfilment and revenue
• Heightened productivity
• Decreased transportation costs
• Reduced inventory
• Transparent and integrated S&OP process
• Improved decision making and visibility through management KPIs

If you’d like to get some hands-on experience with the solution, this is possible with the newly released DELMIA Quintiq Playground.  If you have a DELMIA Quintiq account, you can launch Macro Planner and try it out today!
