MFP/OTB
Unify financial and operational planning within a single system
Lack of integration between financial planning and operational execution often leads to inefficiencies, misaligned budgets, and suboptimal inventory management. Unify the top-down budget plans with day-to-day operational replenishment planning.
AIVOX Merchandise Financial Planning (MFP) and Open-to-Buy (OTB) solutions enable retailers to seamlessly align financial planning with day-to-day replenishment operations by utilizing a common system with up-to-date data, enhancing overall efficiency and profitability. AIVOX OTB provides detailed visibility into supply chain and capacity constraints, enabling more informed, strategic decision-making.
A unified solution for financial planning, execution, and follow-up
Unify the typically disconnected financial planning and open-to-buy processes with end-to-end supply chain data and management within a single system. Enable more efficient planning using up-to-date F&R forecasts and projections, where factors such as supply, network, and capacity constraints are considered.
The automated tracking of purchasing against the planned targets in the same system enables optimal purchasing decisions in alignment with the OTB budgets, minimizing lost sales and optimizing inventory while reducing manual work.
