The company leveraged SAP SNC to base replenishment and ordering on actual downstream demand rather than on high-level forecasts. As a result, Colgate-Palmolive was able to:

• Cut vendor-managed inventory from five days to one day
• Improve the granularity and timeliness of customer data
• Reduce manual order handling and processing
• Help planners spend more time analyzing business impacts and less time cleansing data
• Enable the company to keep more products in stock during key promotions via effective forecasting and promotions planning
