Abstract: Private Label product sales have increased significantly over recent years, with the level of penetration and sophistication varying by country and retailer strategy. Many of the most successful Private Label retailers are moving this approach on and positioning the Private Label, thus the whole store, as the
brand. By owning the
brand, the retailer must deal with complexities and issues more traditionally associated with the CPG
brand manufacturer. These issues include time to market, regulations, quality, and safety or consumer pressure. Failure to establish adequate processes and systems to support the
brand can tarnish the
brand and, in many cases, have severe economic implications across the whole range of products sold.
Brand integrity has been identified as one of the key issues faced by Private Label retailers. In this white paper, learn more about the
brand integrity strategies used today by some of the most successful Private Label retailers.

Further explanation starts with a review of all demands and supplies considered by planning logic, and then proceeds to an overview of the planning calculations.
Abstract: Most of the manufacturing software vendors have planning and scheduling software which assume either infinite production capacity for calculating quantities of raw material and work in progress (WIP) requirements or infinite quantities of raw and WIP materials for calculating production capacity. There are many problems with this approach. This paper discusses the pitfalls of this approach and how to avoid these by making sure that the software you buy indeed takes into account finite quantities of required materials as well as finite capacities of work centers in your manufacturing facility.

This article provides a breakthrough planning approach for (1) rapidly realizing the business capabilities dictated by strategy (2) aligning process, technology and organization design and (3) through the financial lens of 'real options' shows how to quan
Abstract: System planning is the Achilles’ heel of a data center physical infrastructure project. Planning mistakes can propagate through later deployment phases, resulting in delays, cost overruns, wasted time, and a compromised system.
