Collaborative, Planning, Forecasting, and

Replenishment

What is CPFR…?•A business practice •Trading partners working together in planning fulfilling customer demand.

Links sales and marketing best practices to supply chain planning and execution processes.

Objective is to increase availability to the customer while reducing inventory, transportation and logistics costs.

Three modes of CPFRBasic CPFR: a limited number of business processes integrated between a limited number of supply chain partners

Developed CPFR: will typically involve a greater number of data exchanges between two partners, and may extend to suppliers taking responsibility for replenishment on behalf of their customer.

Advanced CPFR: goes beyond data exchanges to synchronise forecasting information systems and coordinate planning and replenishment processes
