DETAILS
The application incorporates pivot tables in its data reports as well as provides exports in pivot format

Features a ready look at the input data status and as well as a Dashboard. The workflow is layed out in a linear form with alert
Features the ability to create models and scenarios within the models.
Simulation is at the SKU and Line Level but the application can be configured to give only the volume look

Again, the focus in OSP (our tool) starts ground-up at the SKU and line level. Volume level rollup is possible
Only in $ currency in curent version. Generic currency in later version.
Since we start at the SKU level, this allignment is guarranteed by design
Dollarized view is readily available.

We focus on the total landed costs which includes costs of raws, transportation, inventory handling,
conversion, and changeover costs.
Any of all of these cost components can be varied and tested for sensitivity and compared in different
models/scenarios.

This has to be done outside of our tool as we do not track plan execution metrics in this version of OSP

Upload via CSV or direct interface to ERPs. Download as Excel, PDF, CSV, or text. Can also download to a
DB via a custom interface
OSP has detailed audit trails of who touched what data and when. It also provides for archiving models and
scenarios in the DB.
Used quite successfully in major food producers (McCain, ConAgra, …)
d out in a linear form with alerts and guidance.
