Training Course Overview
Demand planning and sales forecasting are crucial components for any organization, whether in the service or manufacturing sector. A service organization would forecast the demand for its services and ensure it is prepared to meet that demand. Meanwhile, a manufacturing organization would assess the demand for its products by evaluating the availability of raw materials, production capacity, and distribution, for instance.
This Demand Planning & Demand Management training course is designed to help organizations effectively manage demand and strategically plan to fulfill it. Rather than simply reacting to orders, demand management is key to aligning marketing and sales efforts with production timelines. It becomes particularly critical in situations where capacity has shifted, whether due to changes in equipment or human resources. Most importantly, this course will emphasize the significance of demand management, focusing on its effectiveness, cost efficiency, and inventory considerations.
