Item Planning: A Real-Time Solution with Real Value for the Enterprise
What's the best way to plan and forecast sales, inventory and profit requirements across multiple levels of category, channel, event and time? With Manhattan Associates' integrated solutions, you plan the way you want—top-down or bottom-up—using simulation capabilities to make the right decisions for optimum results.
Manhattan Associates' Item Planning lets you build bottom-up plans by item for assortments, key items, by vendor, class or item attribute. You can group and reconcile plans with top-down goals in real time. And you can do this without relying on administrative or IT support.
Top-Down or Bottom-Up?
With integrated planning solutions from Manhattan Associates, you can choose the approach that best fits the current circumstances. Or you can use "what-if" planning, trying both top-down and bottom-up scenarios, to weigh different strategies and hone in on the best, most valid plan.
Item Planning is designed for multi-channel operations and is easy to use with corporate and personal plan worksheets. It also provides real-time data and graph displays and delivers these benefits:
- Gain enterprise-wide visibility to product information. You can plan and forecast sales and inventory requirements across multiple levels of the product hierarchy, all the way down to the SKU level.
- Maximize productivity. The solution is easy to use with fast response times. Your staff will be able to concentrate on planning and analysis instead of data gathering, entry, grouping and reconciling.
- Get rapid results. Group, seed and reconcile plans dynamically for maximum, unconstrained planning flexibility.
- Increase sales and margins. Now you have the means to react quickly to changing customer needs and can ensure you have the right product, at the right price, in the right locations at the right time.
