SAS Intelligent Planning Suite
Everything needed to accurately forecast shopper and consumer demand to create seamless merchandise and assortment plans.
Reconcile plans top-down, bottom-up and middle-out to help ensure your financial and merchandise plans work hand in hand.
Develop more productive planning processes.
Predict and plan demand with greater accuracy and drive forecasting efficiencies using a variety of advanced analytics methodologies, including machine learning. Automated, low-touch planning processes help manage planning by exception, which in turn reduces errors and human forecast bias.
Boost your financial performance.
Improve your sales and margins with dynamic in-season reforecasting that proactively adjusts to changing demand and inventory conditions. SAS Intelligent Planning Suite uses proven analytics that enables you to optimize assortments to increase your inventory's productivity and profitability.
Create better customer experiences.
Analytics-driven, localized assortment plans enable you to tailor merchandise to meet the needs of your customers. Effective assortments and new product launches depend on the ability to leverage advanced analytics at scale to understand what customers are looking for in terms of style, color or size – and use that knowledge to deliver a superior shopping experience.
