What demand management solution is good for China?

Filed in archive Point of view by ehsan on October 28, 2007

Considering the the low transparency of operations in China, one question that comes to the mind is that: "What demand planning tools are better for companies which have China operations?"

Well, the answer depends on whether the product demand is fast-changing or not. If not, it doesn´t really matter but for the other scenario, the solutions with great collaborating features seem like a good option.

Based on this notion, what solutions do you recommend? Any thoughts?

Response from: no image Dhananjaya Krishna (Check me out!)

It would be based on four categories of items and their expectations to the market. Engineered-to-order Class C (maybe B) items that can be stocked would be an option. Assemble-to-order
Sub Assemblies that can be stocked make-to-order
Based on demand pattern and speed-to-market, the BOM level will need to be determined to stock appropriately make-to-stock
Based on demand pattern and speed-to-market, the end item can be stocked
