What's Inside Sales & Operations Planning

FactoryTwin S&OP unifies your entire planning organization into one live operating digital twin model. Sales, operations, supply chain, and finance work from shared, cleansed data, not disconnected spreadsheets and siloed meetings.

Projected Demand

Forecast future demand using historical trends and inputs to align production and capacity planning proactively.

Resource Utilization

Understand how machines, labor, and work centers are being used to identify underutilization or overload conditions.

Inventory Planning

Optimize inventory levels by balancing service levels, carrying costs, and production variability.

Historic Delivery Insights

Analyze past delivery performance to identify patterns, risks, and improvement areas for better future commitments.

Supply Planning

Align procurement and production plans with demand to ensure material availability without excess inventory.

Financials

Connect operational plans to financial outcomes, enabling data-driven decisions that improve profitability and cash flow.

Built For The People Who Run Operations

VP Operations

Get a single source of truth across demand, supply, and capacity, and replace the pre-meeting scramble with a decision-ready operating picture.

Supply Chain Planners

Work from AI-consolidated demand and supply data instead of manually reconciling spreadsheets from five different teams.

Sales Leadership

Input demand forecasts into a shared model and see capacity constraints in real time, preventing over-commitment to customers.

CFO / Finance

See the revenue, margin, and cash flow impact of every plan decision before it's approved, not after it's executed.

What Changes When You Deploy Sales & Operations Planning

Without FactoryTwin

Planning starts with hours of manual data reconciliation across disconnected systems

Demand, supply, and finance plans exist in separate spreadsheets

Constraints and bottlenecks are discovered after commitments are made

Planning relies on static reports with limited forward visibility

 

Financial impact of changes is delayed or unclear
