Supply Chain Planning

About this course

Supply chain planning is an important activity in any supply chain. This is where organizations get an idea of the upcoming demand, realize if they have the capacity to meet the demand, and determine how to realize these demands. In this course, we will explore how to use data science to conduct demand and supply planning, how to constrain the forecast, and how to measure the results. As we walk through this process, we will also explore how to use Excel to quantify each step.

What you will learn

• Describe how demand planning, supply planning, and constrained forecast are associated with one another.
• Use Excel to analyze historical data to quantify future needs.
• Measure and quantify results for improvement.
