Technology Enablement
Technology is the backbone of Process enablement. Technology enablement services focus on tier one, and tier two supply chain planning solutions. These solutions are often referred to as ‘decision support systems’ because unlike other technologies that automate transactions, these systems provide data that help companies predict expected trending and do ‘what if’ analysis to quickly respond to market changes. This nuance requires cleaner data.
A large part of Plan4Demand’s business is helping companies who did not approach the initial implementation of the technology holistically. Companies engage Plan4Demand to optimize design, to train the end users, to maximize on functionality by re-configuring the way the technology is enabling processes. Another area Plan4demand is often engaged is helping companies select and implement planning solutions for the first time. This requires a different set of services and approaches.
