Supply Chain Consultants Launches Tool for S&OP Meeting Managers

To address the challenge of capturing and summarizing the data necessary to make supply chain decisions, Supply Chain Consultants introduces Zemeter S&OP Azimuth, a software solution for presenting summarized data to conduct S&OP meetings and pre-meetings. S&OP Azimuth, with its SQL server database, aims to provide organizations with the tools to integrate data from many systems, including spreadsheets, and perform "what-if" scenarios during executive S&OP meetings. All data needed for conducting S&OP meetings, as well as demand planning and supply planning pre-S&OP meetings, is available in one place. S&OP Azimuth turns plans into both revenue and earnings based on input selling prices and costs. Metrics compare actuals and plans versus budget by S&OP family. Management can also examine summaries by user-defined periods, such as quarters or total years, and any data or graph can be exported to Excel for custom analysis.
