Strategic Planning

At BMS AFRICA, we consider Strategic Planning as the Organization’s process of defining its strategy, or direction and making decisions on allocating its resources (including its capital and people) to pursue this strategy. Planning is fundamental in any business transaction, whether it is a local or an international one.
Strategic Planning gives direction and goals to a company. A good strategic planning will enable you see where your company goes and will propose how to get there. It will force you to check the way you manage the company and assess hypothesis. Meanwhile, you could determine the company’s strength and weaknesses.
Various business analysis techniques can be used in strategic planning, including SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunities, and Threat) and PEST (Political, Economic, Social, and Technological) analysis.
We are convinced at BMS Consulting that Inventory and GATP (Global Available To Promise) are firmly linked to improve Demand fulfilment performance. We also know how important they are on asset. This is why at BMS AFRICA, we have developed a SIOP (Sales Inventory and Operations Planning) concept. Learn more about SIOP.
