CPFR (Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment)

Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment

Collaborative customer-supplier process for sharing forecasts, plans and replenishment information.

Examples

  1. 01Through CPFR, a retailer shares its weekly promotion plans with the drinks supplier, so production can prepare in time.
  2. 02The CPFR review meeting compares forecasts from both companies and agrees on one plan where they differ by more than 15 %.
  3. 03When CPFR data shows a promotion selling twice as fast as planned, both sides agree on extra deliveries within 48 hours.
