Speakers at the conference will include Thornton A.

User case studies will be a core component of this year's meeting, providing hands-on experience in how to tackle various demand, TPM and supply chain planning challenges. User presenters will include VTech, Welch's, Baxter Healthcare, 20th Century Fox and Johnson & Johnson. Attendees will also meet with Demantra's Product Management Team for a sneak preview of the upcoming release and an opportunity to provide input on future product enhancements.
Conference attendees will focus on best practices in collaborative business processes such as Trade Promotions Management (TPM), Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP), Collaborative Planning Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR) and Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI). Other topics will include managing demand around new product introductions, measurement metrics, and more.
Collaborative demand management technologies designed to allow sales, marketing and operational groups to collaborate around highly accurate forecast models are critical to the success of companies in a wide range of industries. In the wake of Sarbanes-Oxley, new FASB regulations and increasing competition, TPM solutions in particular are now seen as a requirement for companies in consumer product markets seeking to optimize operational efficiency and ensure accurate financial accounting.
