Enables critical Planning and Fulfillment Processes

• Inventory Optimization
  The integration of Inventory Optimization, Supply Chain Planning and Visibility provides a powerful toolkit to run your business without stock outs, lower inventory levels, and a satisfied customer.

• Sales and Operations Planning
  Dynamically align sales and operations plans to achieve the best overall corporate plan. Accelerate the planning cycle for more responsive demand and supply planning to maximize your fulfillment potential based on your priorities. Integrates with leading demand planning solutions, such as Demantra and Steelwedge.

• Order Promising and Fulfillment (Available-to-Promise)
  Promise orders earlier, ship more orders on time, reduce inventory, and provide fast customer response. Integrates with execution to enable rapid and reliable demand fulfillment.
  Enables Critical Supply Chain Collaboration Processes

• Supply Chain Monitoring
  ICON-SCC provides visibility into and alerts for inventory, supply, capacities, and alignment with demand across a multi-level supply network.

• Supplier Collaboration (VMI)
  ICON-SCC enables your suppliers to confirm supply availability over the extended planning horizon, such as for sales and operations planning. Suppliers gain visibility into demand, inventory, min and max targets, and previous supply commits.  Updated supply commits from suppliers are immediately visible. 

• Customer Collaboration (VMI)
  ICON–SCC enables you to establish a collaborative relationship with customers for greater efficiency in managing replenishment.  Collaborate on forecast and replenishment over the extended planning horizon and monitor shortage and excess situations.

• Demand-Capacity Planning
  ICON-SCC provides collaboration on capacities across a multi-level supply network.

• ICON-SLM - Supply Liability Management
  Liability management is a key focus for manufacturing managers – especially in light of Sarbanes-Oxley and other corporate governance mandates. The advent of outsourced production and component procurement to contract manufacturers means companies assume greater obligations as component inventories are purchased on their behalf.
