Lagerhaus to enhance strategic decision-making with Anaplan & Bedford Consulting
Share
Lagerhaus, a Swedish retail chain with 58 stores across Norway and Sweden and an online store shipping to Finland and Denmark, has chosen to partner with Anaplan and Bedford Consulting to streamline and speed up its demand, supply, and distribution planning processes in one central platform.
Lagerhaus is on an exciting growth journey, expanding to new markets and B2B channels. To get a better overview of supply and demand, increasing logistics, product costs, and supply constraints, Lagerhaus recognised the need for a collaborative planning process to increase transparency and visibility. By that, Lagerhaus wants to enable the teams to make informed decisions and move away from a cumbersome planning process with numerous Excel sheets and reports that led to analysis in multiple, disparate ways. Lagerhaus is looking to Anaplan to deliver a platform that empowers the teams to plan dynamically, perform “what if analyses,” and give more time to analyse data.
“We are excited to move away from disconnected planning processes and design our demand, supply, and distribution planning processes in Anaplan with the support from Bedford Consulting’s expert team. With a strong focus on cash flow and product life cycle management, we want to link our planning processes tightly together to give us a more comprehensive picture of ongoing operations, enabling us to make strategic choices and quickly adapt to market changes.” Martin Almerud, CFO, Lagerhaus.
“At Bedford, we look forward to working with Lagerhaus and assisting the company on its Connected Planning journey. By delivering a robust supply, demand and distribution planning solution, the team will see huge benefits moving away from manual Excel planning to proactive “what-if” scenario planning and will gain hugely from an agile platform and access to real-time data to manage the expansion of the business.” David Hagetoft, Commercial Director Nordics, Bedford Consulting.
