Why do so many companies settle for “good enough” in supply chain planning – when better is absolutely possible?

In this episode of the S&OP Masterclass from Roima, we sit down with Søren Hammer Pedersen and Benjamin Obling to talk about how you can move from legacy processes to smarter, more automated planning that actually delivers results.
We’ll share real stories and practical steps to help you rethink how you approach demand and supply planning, get more out of your tools, and challenge old habits that no longer serve you.  

If you're tired of inefficiencies and ready to unlock real business value, this one’s for you. Listen in and pick up ideas you can immediately start using to improve accuracy, cut costs, and stay ahead.

In this episode, you'll learn about:
1. Understanding the concept of planning excellence in supply chains.
2. Balancing process optimization with tool integration.
3. Importance of challenging existing supply chain processes.
4. Identifying and automating key strategic supply chain processes.
5. Leveraging business logic for dynamic stocking strategies.
6. Effective strategies for enhancing forecast accuracy.
