Eric Deutsch, a principal with Oliver Wight Americas, has written a white paper on the role that coordinators play in Integrated Business Planning and Sales and Operations Planning processes.
The white paper is based on Deutschs experience as an S&OP coordinator and project manager for a multi-national specialty chemical and biotech firm. The author shares the wisdom of his experience and points out pitfalls to avoid. He also demonstrates how the coordinator is the right-hand person to the executive process owner for each step in the process.
The article highlights the benefits that coordinators gain, including access to leadership and key management, camaraderie within the network or coordinators, and an increased potential for upward mobility.
The article also details the performance expectations of the coordinators for each step of the IBP or S&OP process.
The author addresses the roles of coordinators, sometimes called leads, of each step of the S&OP/IBP process: Product Management Review, Demand Review, Supply Review, Financial Appraisal, Integrated Reconciliation, and Management Business Review.
A copy of the white paper is available at http://www.oliverwight-americas.com/new_white_papers/ibp-coordinator-roles-white-paper.htm.

Oliver Wight Americas, Inc. has released its newest white paper, How to Leverage Longer Planning Horizons in Sales and Operations Planning / Integrated Business Planning.
George Palmatier and Colleen Crum, Oliver Wight principals with decades of practitioner experience, share their insights into improving Sales and Operations (S&OP) Planning and Integrated Business Planning (IBP) by applying a rolling planning horizon of 24 months or longer.
The authors contrast S&OP backward-looking reporting and analysis with the dynamic advantages of IBP, which applies decision-supporting orientation based on future-focused scenario planning. Palmatier and Crum provide an executive overview of IBP and then outline why moving to a longer planning horizon is a natural step when transitioning from S&OP to IBP.
The paper explains how implementing longer planning horizons with IBP more effectively integrates operational and financial management. Palmatier and Crum detail why longer planning horizons with IBP provide greater visibility and early identification of gaps between the annual bottom-up plan and top-down strategic goals. This vital data empowers the leadership team to take timely action to close the gaps and more easily adapt within a volatile global economy.
