Lawson Software is committed to the goal of reducing the complexity and effort involved in implementing Enterprise software and with QuickStep for Demand Planner we take another step in that direction.
“To offer a rapid implementation method for the M3 Demand Planner (DMP) was a natural next step in our evolution of the QuickStep-concept” says Patrik Sjöberg, Product Director at Lawson. Demand Planner is a widely used and sold add-on product within the Lawson Enterprise Suite, and its role in our customers supply chain is critical since a proper forecast can make or break the entire supply chain process. Implementing forecasting tools can be very rewarding but also very challenging given the level of sophistication in tools such as the M3 Demand Planner. To reduce these challenges we have pre-packaged our knowledge and experiences based on past implementations into a best-practice configuration and processes for the M3 Demand Planner.
The QuickStep for Demand Planner is a toolset that will give you a higher starting point when implementing the M3 Demand Planner. It is not just a pre-configured database but also well documented settings and processes. Even if it is hard or impossible to provide a 100% fit to your needs a 70-90% fit will enable you to focus on the remaining percentages that differentiate your company from the rest. With QuickStep for Demand Planner you can not only reduce time, risk and cost but also release the full power of your M3 Demand Planner investment. We believe that an improved forecasting process can help companies reduce the efforts spent on forecasting, reduce the forecasting cycle-time and finally improve the accuracy of the forecast.
