“One of the clear benefits that I see is the forecast accuracy—this has helped us have the right stock level throughout all our sites. That’s money that we have as a buffer in the supply chain now.”
Magnus Tagtstrom, Senior Director of Supply Chain Optimization, CircleK
“We needed a system in which all teams could work in parallel to create a single source of truth... For us, adapting to change is just a matter of building a new Anaplan model”
Corporate Treasurer, Prestige Beauty Retailer
“So we want to get to that true integrated, holistic S&OP process — and based on the success we’ve had in Anaplan with supply chain, it will actually be extended to our retail business and be used in the assortment planning process as well.”
Wade Latham, Senior Director of Operations, Carter’s
“It used to take us a day to run individual elements of the planning cycle, but it’s pretty much instantaneous now, and very hands-off, enabling more time on insights and action than data aggregation. I can now respond to Compass Group queries around purchasing performance, KPIs, and financials within hours. Before, it could take days. This makes my role more insight-driven than just reporting.”
Sandra Korres, General Manager of Finance and Analytics, Foodbuy (Compass Group)
