SAP Integrated Business Planning Reviews

Annette D.

Advanced user of SAP Integrated Business Planning
★★★★★
Great user friendly planning tool!

What do you like best?

IBP is easy to configure and is extremely easy to use. It gives you the standard Excel feeling and therefore users feel immediately comfortable with the system. I like the best fit statistical forecasting possibilities, automated cleaning, the possibilities of integration with other SAP systems and the fact that we have the complete E2E planning process in only one application. Because it's Cloud based, we always stay on top of the latest developments.

What do you dislike?

Some of the functionalities are not fully mature yet. We would love to use driver-based planning but currently this still has performance issues.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

The problems we would like to solve with SAP IBP is to reduce landscape complexity, to move to a complete integrated system where information of one module is used by the other. We also would like to have stock allocation which we currently don't have and we are finding a solution to deal with MTO project / configurable business where we struggle to have a long term component plan.

At this moment we only implemented Demand Planning and IO (the others are in implementation phase) and we currently reduced workload for demand planners as we can rely more on statistical forecasting. Also our required inventory levels are optimally calculated and therefore total inventory levels are reduced.
