JDA Portfolio: For the Retail Industry -- Part Five: Analysis of Market Impact
P.J. Jakovljevic 12/31/2004 12:00:00 AM
Given the competition for retail customers and wholesale orders is intense, retailers, including software vendors, must be able to meet consumer demand quickly, accurately and at the most competitive price.

JDA Portfolio: For the Retail Industry Part One: Event Summary
P.J. Jakovljevic 12/27/2004 12:00:00 AM
From how to price and promote products to how to optimize profits, JDA Portfolio tries to create that perfect "moment of truth"--when the right consumer product at the right price is at the right place and at the right time. Yet, the portfolio rounding out process has to continue in earnest, especially after JDA’s aborted merger with QRS.

Predictive Demand Supply
Lonnie Childs 12/23/2004 12:00:00 AM
If you're in the supply chain business, right up there with Newton's law of gravity stands Murphy's other law stipulating that demand and supply, if left to their own tendencies, will always tend to diverge and get you in trouble. Welcome to the world of predictive demand and supply planning whose mission is to predict imbalances as far in advance as possible, in order to provide ample time and opportunity to design and implement corrective sales and operations solutions. So how do we design a system for identifying potential issues and expressing them via a commonly understood key process indicator (KPI) where the cause and effect of our actions can be readily measured? Read this article by the former director of Dell's operations and demand management.

The Changing Face of the Holiday Season
Carla Reed 12/23/2004 12:00:00 AM
It seems that Santa will need to relocate to China! When traveling abroad (with the exception of low wage countries) it is becoming increasingly difficult to find items actually locally made in the region you are visiting. What are the implications of this for brands, companies, and consumers?

N-Tier Demand Management
Bill McBeath 12/23/2004 12:00:00 AM
The classic bull-whip effect means that the further a supplier is removed from the end consumer, the worse are the fluctuations in demand that they see. This has led many to recommend an n-tier approach to demand management, where everyone gets visibility to the end-customer demand at the same time. In practice, very few companies have been able to actually realize this vision. There are some practical approaches that a few leading suppliers deep in the supply chain are have taken to successfully mitigate the bull-whip effect.
