Most supply chain projects to date have been all about reducing operating costs through inventory reductions, better transportation planning, lower transaction costs, and improved supplier management. Covering the costs for customer-initiated Collaborative Planning, Forecasting, and Replenishment (CPFR) programs and Vendor-Managed Inventory (VMI) programs by further reducing these operating costs is difficult, at best. Industry-leading companies are building demand-driven supply chains around CPFR and VMI initiatives to grow revenue and profits. This white paper initially describes the five best practices these demand-driven companies have in common and the technology building blocks necessary to achieve them. The remainder of the paper focuses on how to build a demand-driven supply chain around CPFR and VMI programs to improve Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and have significant positive impacts on shareholder value.
