  • Following the review, ensure that all demand changes are made in the ERP/TM
  • Be able to review and/or answer questions regarding the Demand Plan during the Supply Meeting and Executive S&OP meeting
  • On a regular basis participate in meetings regarding new/unplanned demand and update the Demand Plan to include those changes
  • Communicate changes to demand (increases/decreases) to affected stakeholders in S&OP, Procurement and Manufacturing
  • On an annual basis, work with the Sales, Business and Finance teams to generate the Demand Plan for the AOP process
  • Manage customer specific inventory items
  • Manage and improve Demand Planning metrics

  • Facilitate SKU level analysis regularly
  • Own and update assigned Master Data in the ERP system
  • Participate in sales team meetings to provide inputs regarding overall S&OP and Demand Plan, and to learn significant commercial intelligence
  • Other potential projects/responsibilities
  • If required because demand exceeds capacity, facilitate the Allocation process
  • Work with Supply Planners to address issues regarding schedule/capacity challenges, inventory gaps to plan, and determining the 18month supply view
