Download this detailed report as a helpful resource to compare your planning performance to leaders in the field and take the next step towards planning excellence – regardless of where you are on your journey.

What does best-in-class forecasting and inventory management look like? Compare your performance to findings from the most comprehensive study of its kind, encompassing over $250 billion in annual sales across multiple industries.

Gain insights into best practices from an in-depth analysis of the state of demand forecasting, inventory management and (new for this year) supply performance in North America. Now in its nineth year, this study offers a comprehensive look into the state of supply chain complexity, demand planning performance and the benefits of demand sensing and multi-echelon inventory optimization (MEIO).

Learn how the use of real-time information and artificial intelligence to sense demand dramatically cuts forecast error by an average of 36%, allowing companies to better serve customers, capture growth opportunities and carry less inventory. To make inventory work harder, combine demand sensing with multi-echelon inventory optimization to more than double the stock that can be safely cut.
