Upcoming Life Science Event: Sales and Operations Planning

On September 9^th EyeOn will facilitate the second network round table for planning & control professionals in the Life Science industry. This event’s topic is Sales and Operations Planning.

As the network shares challenges and best practices, a multitude of planning topics such as Demand Planning, Operational Excellence, Inventory Management and Portfolio Management will come to the table.

A central function that forms the link between almost every planning function is Sales & Operations Planning. S&OP strives to align business targets, marketing & sales ambitions, supply chain possibilities and financial constraints into one feasible plan.

But S&OP should not be an inward looking function: a lesson from our network is that life science companies are actively striving to make this process more customer focused.

At the event we will address questions like:

• Who is our customer?
• How can S&OP help with better reaching our customer?
• How should S&OP organized and positioned in relation to other processes?
• What are key prerequisites for a good S&OP process and what are pitfalls?
