The future of planning: 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁, 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘁𝘆 ⚡ Imagine an optimal planning process that considers all relevant factors and stakeholders, achievable with just a few clicks. Today, we’ve come a long way with intelligent software – helping planners with minimal effort. But do you, as a planner, want to get the most out of it? That still requires a good deal of analytical knowledge and expertise. What if we could make our software so intuitive and user-friendly that it reduces the direct burden of complex calculations? The mathematics would run 24/7, but purely in the background. And it would be more efficient than ever, offering proactive suggestions to the planner: 💡 "Would you prefer [Y] or [Z]?" 💡 "Have you considered [X]?" In our newest insight, Patrick Hennen, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) at ORTEC, and Emma de Wit, Vice President (VP) of Digital Transformation at ORTEC, explore the future of planning and the role of technology in shaping it.

Balancing local agility and global synergy in supply chain planning at The HEINEKEN Company 🍻 "At Heineken, we try to create the best of both worlds: staying agile while maximizing our supply chain’s potential," says Jasper Blaas, Planning Capability Manager at HEINEKEN. ORTEC supports this with advanced planning solutions that enhance collaboration and visibility across their supply chain. This collaboration enables HEINEKEN to effectively manage both local and global operations, and improves responsiveness to market changes. 💡 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀? Sven Oosterhuis, Industry Lead Manufacturing at ORTEC Data Science & Consulting: "The HEINEKEN project demonstrates the importance of having a centralized planning structure, especially for multinationals. Many companies still operate with separate systems for each country, missing out on opportunities for synergies. With its new, powerful tools, the centralized team realizes the potential which remains untapped if you only rely on ad-hoc cooperation of country planners. By managing everything on one platform, businesses don't only save costs but also respond more quickly to market changes."

One size fits none. Instead, let's praise engaging and adaptive software that drives 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗿 decisions. 🚀 In the past, planning software often adopted a one-size-fits-all approach, assuming that a single solution could meet the needs of all users. However, a planning ecosystem goes beyond planners. As organizations grow more complex, it’s clear that different roles within a company have different needs. ☀ Good news: the shift is happening. From generic to highly adaptable, personalized software solutions that learn from users’ choices and behaviors. As a result, the software can tune into the needs of the users more and more.
