Anaplan & Bedford enables efficient S&OP at GANT

GANT, the American sportswear brand founded in 1949 with a presence in 79 markets and more than 600 stores across the globe, has chosen to partner with Bedford Consulting to deliver improvements to its Supply Chain and Operations Planning, including demand planning, supply planning and S&OP.

As an established, multi-channel business, GANT recognised the need for a planning tool which could integrate processes at a granular level of detail with the possibility to simulate scenarios, based on different hypotheses.

“Anaplan will enable us to optimise and streamline our processes. A number of global teams including Demand Planning, Inventory & Procurement and Business Planning will utilise the platform in a way that will allow us greater visibility into the levers to pull to deliver optimum results for our consumers. Planning at a regional and global level with the ability to model different scenarios will enhance our decision-making processes enabling us to save time whilst improving accuracy”, commented Sophie Öhrström, EVP Global Planning, Merchandising & Logistics, GANT.

“We are delighted to support GANT with their Anaplan implementation. As a global brand, enabling optimised and connected planning processes which support GANT to achieve sustainable processes and reach strategic goals is key.” Paul Rawlinson, Chief Customer Officer, Bedford Consulting
