Sensor Fusion Market to Witness Robust Expansion Throughout the Forecast Period 2022 -2028

The act of merging data from several sensors to obtain more accurate and trustworthy information is known as sensor fusion. Sensor fusion is critical in the context of autonomous cars since it allows the vehicle to "see" and understand its surroundings. Sensors aboard the vehicle capture data about the surrounding environment, which is then aggregated and processed to provide a more comprehensive and accurate depiction of the world around the car. Sensor fusion algorithms examine and interpret sensor data using advanced techniques such as machine learning and computer vision.

The advantages of sensor fusion extend beyond self-driving cars. Sensor fusion, for example, can be utilised in industrial settings to monitor equipment and predict maintenance needs. By merging information from several sensors, Anomalies can be identified, and probable failures can be forecast. Sensor fusion in healthcare can be used to improve patient care by merging data from numerous medical equipment, providing a more complete picture of a patient's health. Sensor fusion technology is constantly improving, and its applications are numerous.

While sensor fusion technology has many advantages, it is not without its drawbacks. One key challenge is the requirement for precise sensor calibration. Each sensor has advantages and disadvantages, and combining their data necessitates a thorough grasp of their distinct properties. Furthermore, the massive volume of data collected by various sensors necessitates a substantial amount of computer capacity to interpret and evaluate. Yet, as technology advances, sensor fusion is becoming more accessible and will definitely continue to play an important role in many industries.

Value Chain Planning - VMI and CMI - The Challenge 

The traditional continuous replenishment process (CRP) activity does not truly generate a demand plan that can be integrated into the manufacturer’s Supply Chain for production planning purposes. 

It can be too tactical and short-term oriented and typically focuses on the next two to four weeks. 

The emphasis on order placement and replenishment based on near term activity can be considered a challenge.

Although VMI and CMI are constrained by criticisms of short-term focused and being too tactical, in practice they have been very popular because of their low cost to implement. The key is to leverage low-cost implementation while driving consensus and collaboration and bringing the focus on promotional planning and management.

Value Chain Planning-Collaborative Planning

In the manufacturer to retailer model, customer collaborative partnerships have been a dominant theme since the 1990s. Although there was a lot of energy behind CPFR and retailers are adopting different versions of collaborative forecasting and replenishment strategies now. These include Collaborative-VMI, CPFR, CMI, Shared Single Forecast, and replenishment, etc.

The retailers have emphasized the adoption of Collaborative Planning for better forecasting promotional volume. So there is a broader adoption of CPFR and Account-Based Forecasting in this space although there is no consistent standard among either manufacturers or retailers. The CPFR that is being preached by retailers also varies in flavor from one retailer to the other and between Mass, Food and Drug.

Some retailers focus on the Sales or the POS forecasts, while others focus on promotional forecasts alone. Again some Retailers focus on starting the process with two different forecasts, while others emphasize the importance of a Shared Single Forecast.

More formally, collaboration is defined as the creation of a shared understanding between two participants where none had previously existed or could have come to on their own.

Value Chain Planning- The Key steps in an S&OP/IBP process re-design:

Assess the key objectives of the Planning Process- Identify and Involve stakeholders in Sales, Supply Planning, Operations, Marketing, and Finance during the process definition phase. Interview key General Managers and understand their informational needs from the Sales and Operations Planning process

Identify the key pain points- Since Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) is a collaborative process, the key is in establishing and improving internal communication and collaboration. The best approach is to start with the question, where do we have communication roadblocks? We need to identify areas where communication is missed, or ineffective. We also need to identify where communication is too late to be acted upon. An example of such a pain point will be to learn of a service failure for the first time in a score-card meeting after the end of the month

Identify the Key Component Meetings- The key step in the process design is to plan and establish effective communication and decision sessions among the various functions. Our meeting design will derive from several white boarding sessions that revealed the various pain points in the process (step 2) and the key touch points in the organization. Where the touch points are heavy and involves frequent information sharing, that will indicate the need for a formalized information sharing session. Typically, the key meetings include the Demand consensus meeting, Supply Collaboration Meeting, the General Manager Review meeting, and the Operations Review meeting. In most organizations, there will be an executive Sales and Operations Planning meeting. But the type and content of the meeting depend on the needs of each organization

Design Content and Timing of Meetings- Working with functional players from the key touch points, we will establish the type, sequence and timing of each meeting during the planning period. Through white boarding sessions, we will help you establish the key contents and the objective of each meeting

Meeting Templates- we will help you design appropriate templates and summary reports to facilitate the meetings to be focused on key issues and arrive at a consensus recommendation. Valtitude with a vast collection of process reports in its knowledgebase, will help you design the template that is customized to your process needs

Supply Collaboration Process- Once a consensus demand forecast is finalized, Supply planners will refresh their planning systems to arrive at their new schedule with constraints. The new demand may point to imbalances in their supply process including issues in raw materials, finished goods inventory, manufacturing schedule, and capacity constraints. The collaboration process should consider these issues to problem solve and decide a set of supply constraints to be acted on in the Operations Review meeting

Budget Shortfall Review- Depending on the pain points of the current organizational process, we design this meeting to reconcile top-down financial and marketing forecasts with the operational demand plan. The GAP identification and resolution is a major part of the Sales and Operations Planning Process

Exception Management- A well-defined process will thrive on exception management. All Component meetings will start with a follow-up of issues from the previous meeting and deal with exception issues highlighted by the meeting templates. A concise design of meeting templates will help you achieve brief, sharply focused, effective meetings

Sales, Operations and Inventory Planning- This is a key part of the Operations Planning and review. The organizational consensus team will examine the Sales, Production and Inventory Plans and discuss major issues and bottlenecks

Supply constraints and Scenario Management- The budget shortfalls may trigger management decisions on additional promotions and even key new product introductions. The process should be designed to be flexible enough to accommodate key top management requests to verify supply availability for key sales generating events. Promotions on key items can only be offered if adequate inventory is available or can be turned around in time to meet the promotional demand

Value Chain Metrics- The Sales and Operations Planning process will be guided by the various value chain metrics that highlight performance and pinpoint areas of improvement. Metrics should be a good indicator of the state of the business and should call for quantifiable corrective action. The design of the metrics should help you align incentives holistically to help achieve the organizational objectives. The key metrics include Fill Rates, OTIF<, inventory targets, forecast accuracy, on-time delivery, order cycle times. Demandplanning.net will help you design metrics customized to how various functional players are aligned in your organization. With our research and analytics in this area, we have a unique advantage in designing proper Supply Chain Metrics and implementation.

Demand Planning - Business Plan

Valtitude has developed a unique methodology to develop long-term forecasting and analyzing the forecast sensitivity.  

Often the annual Marketing Plan is the driver for the demand information in the annual budget. The Marketing Plan is developed with a volume forecast for the year along with the spend levels necessary to create and sustain the expected demand for the products. The process for Market share forecasting is explained here. Marketing-mix modeling is a key component of developing the Marketing Plan.  The Business Plan or the annual Budget often follows the following outline: 

 Capacity and other bottlenecks 

Organizational Consensus 

Revisions to Spend and volumes 

Management buy-in 

Internal Factors. 

Development of a Sales and Marketing Plan 

Calendar Monthly forecast 

Strategic analysis of external factors: 

- Economic 

- Political 

- Competitive 

Operating Budget 

- Manufacturing Costs 

- Administrative costs 

- Sales and Marketing Overheads
