Read Our New Book - Integrated Tactical Planning: Respond to Change, Increase Competitiveness, and Reduce Costs - https://www.oliverwight-americas.com/product/integrated-tactical-planning/

Integrated Tactical Planning (ITP) - https://www.oliverwight-americas.com/services/integrated-tactical-planning/ has proven to be a solution to this problem and is the subject of the latest ground-breaking book released by Oliver Wight International. Oliver Wight is a recognized thought leader in integrated business processes.

Integrated Tactical Planning gives companies “the ability to re-plan quickly and accurately as circumstances change, and engage the right people, at the right level, in the right time horizon, to collaboratively agree to the change in plans,” the authors write.

Post this

Respected Oliver Wight thought leaders, Rod Hozack, Todd Ferguson, Stuart Harman, and Dawn Howarth, teamed up to write the Integrated Tactical Planning book.

Integrated Tactical Planning gives companies "the ability to re-plan quickly and accurately as circumstances change, and engage the right people, at the right level, in the right time horizon, to collaboratively agree to the change in plans," the authors write.

When these functions work together to respond to change, execution improves without "firefighting." Ultimately, business outcomes are more positive for the company, its customers, and its suppliers.

The book - https://www.oliverwight-americas.com/product/integrated-tactical-planning/ addresses the Integrated Tactical Planning process itself as well as what it takes to implement the process. The following key elements of Integrated Tactical Planning are addressed in the book:

  • Methods for improving reaction time and lowering costs when responding to near-term changes to customer orders and the availability of finished product and materials
  • How to include product portfolio changes and new product launches in near-term planning and execution, using Integrated Tactical Planning
  • Different design and deployment strategies, structures, and roles in Integrated Tactical Planning with a focus on process sustainability
  • Behavioral and performance requirements for Integrated Tactical Planning to improve competitiveness and reduce business costs
  • What it takes to successfully deploy Integrated Tactical Planning, illustrated with a comprehensive case study of an Oliver Wight client company

The Integrated Tactical Planning book can be purchased from https://www.oliverwight-americas.com/product/integrated-tactical-planning/

We've also launched an Integrated Tactical Planning course - https://www.oliverwight-americas.com/public-courses/integrated-tactical-planning-course/
