Kinaxis has just released a new white paper entitled “Why you need to re-evaluate your approach to supply chain planning.”  I won’t restate the entire paper here, but below is an abstract:

The supply chain planning approach developed in the early 1990’s is failing under today’s market pressures. Today’s environment requires more collaboration than control; more coordination than optimization. Demand and supply chain planning, monitoring and response needs to be performed by many users, on an ad hoc basis, as events occur. A new supply chain planning paradigm is required.
