This 50-minute session will focus on specific approaches to demand forecasting and inventory planning that will enable you to increase revenue, improve service levels, and reduce inventory holding costs.  The presentation will detail why traditional approaches to inventory planning and demand forecasting fail and how new probabilistic demand forecasting, collaborative planning, and optimization methods will make a big difference to your bottom line.  The heart of the presentation will be a live demo of Smart IP&O and its bi-directional Kinetic (the new name of Epicor ERP) and Prophet 21 integrations.
