Description

Welcome to your NEWEST supply chain special interest group!

This Special Interest Group (SIG) will focus on:

  • the fundamentals of successful Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP)
  • the key changes organizations have made to their S&OP teams, processes and technology in recent years
  • best practices to improve collaboration and communication in your S&OP process

Ultimately, the objective is to foster deeper collaboration across an organization’s ecosystem to become a more agile and resilient company.

Join us IN PERSON from 9am to 2pm at the beautiful Pyle Center in Madison to create the framework for this group and ensure your needs are met as we shape the future of S&OP together with your peers!
