Delivered during SAPICS 2016, a leading event for supply chain professionals, held at Sun City in North West, South Africa.

In the past, the Demand Driven Institute (DDI) have developed Demand Driven Material Requirements Planning (DDMRP) and a Demand Driven Operating Model (DDOM) that suits these Complex Adaptive Systems and have proved that it works for all material in the Supply Chain from primary raw materials to retail, through manufacturing and distribution. More recently, to complement DDMRP and the DDOM, the development of Demand Driven Sales and Operations Planning (DDS&OP) and the Demand Driven Adaptive System (DDAS) now gives us a complete demand-driven planning and control system from Strategy, through Tactics to Operations.

This new material will now be taught in the recently released DDI certification – Certified Demand Driven Leader (CDDL). Let us show you how you can quickly move from the traditional “Push and Promote” methods to the Demand Driven “Position, Protect and Pull” method and take the lead in your industry.
