| SCP's Planning module is a time-phased Forecasting, Master Production Scheduling and Distribution Requirements Planning (DRP) tool. Quite simply, it recommends what to make, how much to make, and when to make it in order to fulfil existing customer orders and maintain, but not exceed, desirable inventory levels. |
| |
| SCP Planning includes Material Requirement Planning(MRP), with multi-level bill of materials support. It can plan raw material orders directly or explode the raw material demand from the finished goods plan. |

|
Demand Forecasting and Inventory Planning is significantly critical for all operation and manufacturing professionals. Demand Forecasting and Inventory Planning should include details of forecasting in stationary demand situations. Account of medium-term growth forecast should also be given in the Demand Forecasting and Inventory Planning.

| |
|
|
| |
|
Demand and Supply Planning enables manufacturers to understand their customer’s buying behaviors and adapt to the fluctuating demand. Demand and Supply Planning ensures a profitable match of demand and supply. In order to maximize their return on assets, most manufacturers resort to Demand and Supply Planning. Balancing the uncertainty in demand and supply Demand and Supply Planning helps the manufacturers to ensure that they get a complete picture of anticipated customer demand on a finished product level as well as supply. Demand and Supply Planning fulfills a given customer forecast requirement.
