Volatile demand, short product lifecycles, the trend toward outsourced manufacturing, and a fiercely competitive marketplace characterize the technology sector. These factors make managing supply and demand difficult. Costly write-offs of excess inventory have plagued the industry in recent years, and competitive pressures make capturing and protecting market share, generating revenue growth, and launching new products a never-ending challenge. Keeping focused on all these moving targets while achieving desired margin-and-profit outcomes is even more difficult.

Effective information sharing and decision-making across the entire organization is essential for technology companies to be successful.
