The market place for pharmaceutical companies is highly competitive. As a result there is a
need for a flexible, accurate and responsive global planning process to support the key
factors of
rapid time to market, rapid response to demand changes, low costs. Each supply chain
had developed its own Sales Operations planning (SOP) process making it difficult to
combine and form a global view of demand and supply and to maximize sales opportunities.
The requirement was to create a standard SOP process to be used at all the supply chains,
incorporating company and industry best practice.
The solution for this problem was developed as follows: A workshop analyzed all SOP
models used within the company and compared these with business requirements and best
practice. As a result of combined SOP models, the organization was able to develop a best fit
SOP model that could be rolled out across the company.
The workshop produced a detailed documentation which described about inputs, meeting
agendas and attendees, outputs, key performance indicators for each stage of the process.
A simulation of the full SOP model was developed that enabled final design improvements to
be made and training of process participants and key stakeholders. This allowed a
successful implementation plan to be developed. Upon implementing, the process was tried on
trial run for a period of 4 months to facilitate fine tuning. The resulting SOP model was then
rolled out across the company to achieve full benefits.
The rapid implementation of a standardized SOP process gave immediate benefits to the
fortune solutions in terms of:
Improved cash flow due to optimized inventory and improved schedule adherence.
