With increasing volume, variety, and velocity,<br>data has become the new natural resource.\u201d Data has become the essential raw material<br>that ensures manufacturing companies can make strategic decisions that improve<br>operational performance.<br>How is the IBM Planning Analytics driving the future of global manufacturing? Let us<br>look deeper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is IBM Planning Analytics?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Built using the proprietary TM1 engine, IBM Planning Analytics is an integrated<br>planning solution that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to automate, plan, and drive<br>intelligent planning processes. Designed to be easy and flexible, IBM planning analytics<br>includes IBM Watson analytics and integration with MS Excel.<br>Internationally the solution has played a key role for a while now. For instance,<br>Robertson Group used IBM Planning Analytics on the IBM Cloud to integrate multiple<br>data sources and automate complex reporting. Next, let us look at some features and benefits in the manufacturing context.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4 Key Features of IBM Planning Analytics<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Whether it is for better administration, modelling, or user experience, here are 4 key<br>features of the IBM planning analytics solution:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em><strong>1) Data analysis capabilities<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>IBM planning analytics has the in-built capability to analyze data patterns and<br>discover new insights. Integrated with reporting tools like MS Excel and IBM<br>Cognos Analytics, organizations don\u2019t need to completely depend on data<br>scientists to extract manufacturing insights. Additionally, they do not need to<br>export operational data to other tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>2) Interface with MS Excel<\/em><\/strong> (PAX now PAFE)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/veracitiz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PAX-1-1024x535.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2768\" width=\"837\" height=\"436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/veracitiz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PAX-1-1024x535.png 1024w, https:\/\/veracitiz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PAX-1-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/veracitiz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PAX-1-600x314.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 837px) 100vw, 837px\" \/><figcaption>Planning Analytics for Microsoft Excel (PAX \/ PAFE)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Those who love the familiarity of using MS Excel can use IBM Cognos Analysis for<br>MS Excel to retain the familiarity and format of MS Excel while moving data. They<br>can also access advanced functionalities like multidimensional analysis and<br>planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>3) Planning analytics workspace<\/em><\/strong> <strong>(PAW)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>With its visual and interactive workspace, IBM Planning Analytics helps<br>companies focus on what is important to their manufacturing process. This<br>workspace is packed with features like creating views, Dashboards &amp; visualizations for data<br>analysis and natural language search using IBM Watson Analytics at the front-<br>end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/veracitiz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PAW-1024x644.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2770\" width=\"841\" height=\"529\" srcset=\"https:\/\/veracitiz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PAW-1024x644.png 1024w, https:\/\/veracitiz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PAW-300x189.png 300w, https:\/\/veracitiz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PAW-768x483.png 768w, https:\/\/veracitiz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PAW-1536x966.png 1536w, https:\/\/veracitiz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PAW-600x377.png 600w, https:\/\/veracitiz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/PAW.png 1650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 841px) 100vw, 841px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>4) What-if Scenario Analysis<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This easy-to-use feature lets companies analyze the outcome of their decisions<br>before making them. Its flexible sandbox feature allows them to test as many<br>what-if scenarios as needed, before arriving at the right business decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4 Benefits of IBM Planning Analytics in Manufacturing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>1) Faster implementation<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to its flexibility and agility, IBM planning analytics can be leveraged for<br>faster implementation across all manufacturing functions including supply chain<br>and logistics. With increased agility, manufacturing facilities can respond to<br>demand changes and disruptions by adjusting their production schedule.<br>Further, this planning tool can identify unused or underutilized resources that<br>can be used in the event of any disruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>2) Business foresight<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>With IBM planning analytics, manufacturing companies can get the best planning<br>capabilities of IBM Cognos and predictive analytics from IBM Watson Analytics<br>for improving business foresight and decision-making. Through predictive<br>modelling of structured data, manufacturers can now develop analytical<br>capabilities with their Big Data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>3) AI-driven Planning, Budgeting and Forecasting<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The use of AI and natural language processing (or NLP) in IBM planning analytics<br>has made it faster and easier to plan and forecast manufacturing functions. AI<br>has immense potential in planning analytics for small businesses. Some of their benefits include AI-based predictive forecasting, business intelligence (BI), and budget planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>4) Better collaboration<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Among its main benefits, IBM planning analytics allows users to collaborate and<br>share data models with other business functions with a few clicks. In effect,<br>planning analytics breaks down \u201cdata silos,\u201d unifies the data, and shows an<br>integrated view of your operational data across your organization.<br>For instance, if one group modifies their data, this change is immediately<br>reflected across all dashboards, reports, and calculations \u2013 thus enabling<br>immediate collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How IBM Planning Analytics Helps in Sales and Operational Planning<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In any manufacturing facility, the sales planning process is shared across the sales,<br>marketing, and production function. The overall planning comprises:<br><em>&#8211; Annual budgets as an estimate of sales volumes, amounts, and prices.<br>&#8211; Monthly forecasts as an update of the approved budget.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>With IBM Planning Analytics, sales planning benefits in the following ways:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8211; A minimum level of manual sales data entry.<br>&#8211; Process automation that avoids any human errors.<br>&#8211; Provides flexibility and minimizes the workload.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, operational planning includes modules like production planning, demand<br>estimation, and the creation of purchase orders. With IBM Planning Analytics,<br>operational planning is benefited in the following ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8211; Production quantities are within the production capacity of the factory.<br>&#8211; Just-in-Time delivery of raw materials to the plants.<br>&#8211; Communication of updated and real-time production data to all stakeholders.<br>&#8211; Early detection of any change in demand for finished products.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>AI-driven technology solutions like IBM Planning Analytics are transforming the global<br>manufacturing sector through more intelligent workflows and forecasting.
