- Title
Case Study: How S&OP Transformed The Fortunes of a Loss-Making Plant.

- Abstract
Here I present a case study of using S&OP and change management techniques to turnaround the fortunes of a struggling plant. The plant was unprofitable and on time delivery was poor, and it suffered from a series of systemic problems including siloed functions and a culture of blame that pervaded throughout the organization. To tackle the underlying causes of this poor performance, we developed a solution based on 4 key elements: The Team, Robust S&OP, System Health, and Root Cause Analysis. This article reveals how these elements were implemented and the transformational change they brought about.
