Transform consumer goods S&OP with next-level demand shaping

Published by Relex

Demand shaping refers to a company’s collective attempts to influence customer demand for specific products. Companies use demand shaping to balance inequities in supply or demand.

Businesses could also use temporary pricing discounts to increase demand for a more abundantly available product when supply chain disruptions or shortages affect the customer’s initial preference.  

Demand shaping requires close collaboration between marketing, sales, and operations teams to achieve success.
