Session spotlight: Strategic Aspects of S&OP
Brad Tallman, Business Operations Planning Senior Director
Cisco Systems
Bryan Chase, Manager, Supply Chain Management
Cisco Systems
Is S&OP a strategic tool or is it tactical? It's both. S&OP facilitates the development, review, and assessment of the company's strategic plans and it links those strategic plans to the day-to-day operation of the business. S&OP, because it happens once each month and involves top management, brings the executive team into closer, more frequent contact with strategic plans.
You will learn to
- Make the best use of S&OP to enhance strategic planning
- Take advantage of the benefits that result from integrating strategic plans into the S&OP process
- Make your S&OP serve as the link between strategy and tactics
