WebOps INTEGRATED BUSINESS PLANNING

Every business must align financial and operational plans to ensure sales, marketing, manufacturing, purchasing and executives are all on the same page, working towards the same goal.

  1. Is my revenue plan attainable?
  2. What are the market conditions?
  3. How is my promotions campaign going to effect my bottom line?
  4. Do I have enough capacity?
  5. How do I allocate my assets to optimize my operations?

These are only a handful of the all questions that need to be answered during the Business Planning cycle by a group of team members that work for different departments, in different time zones and at geographically distributed locations. A good business plan requires seamlessly integrated processes and technology to bridge the gap between time-zones, departments and even continents. The challenge for most businesses is to find the right tools that can be easily integrated into the ERP backbone without compromising the completeness of the capabilities for Financial and Sales & Operations Planning.

Olive-3’s WebOps IBP takes traditional business planning, sales, and operations planning
processes to the next level by providing all information in real time within a single
package that is built around Microsoft Dynamics AX ERP. The seamless integration of collaborative demand management, rough-cut capacity planning, demand & supply balancing and budget planning ensures that manufacturers and distributors set realistic operational targets, and closely monitor their performance to hit those targets.
