The experts at Oliver Wight provide business leaders with invaluable information for integrating the tactical planning process 

Integrated Tactical Planning (ITP) is an essential process for regularly re-aligning product, demand, and supply plans in the short term, thereby giving the Executive team the confidence that operational activities are being well managed, unless they formally hear otherwise. This cross-functional re-planning process is vital to responding to change, increasing competitiveness, and reducing costs. Integrated Tactical Planning:  Respond to Change, Increase Competitiveness and Reduce Costs helps senior executives devote more time to strategy and other value-added activities by deploying ITP practices throughout their organization.

• Describes how to manage and align product portfolio changes and new products within a single management process 
• Explains the mechanisms and behavioral requirements for an organization to successfully execute Integrated Tactical Planning  
• Offers methods for improving reaction time and cost-effectively responding to changes in Demand and Supply

Gain an in-depth view of how to keep your executives focused on the strategic horizon while spending less time on crisis management

"As Global IBP lead for Fonterra, the fantastic part of our Integrated Tactical Planning process is it just happens, and I can have confidence that the short-term plans are being well managed by the right people in our organization. With ITP managing the short-term, our executives can focus their efforts on the longer-term and strategic plans—exactly where they should be. I've worked in organizations both with ITP and without it, and as an IBP practitioner, I wouldn't be without it. I highly recommend this book for those who are grappling with how to ensure great execution, while keeping the longer term top of mind."
—ROB FINLAYSON, Global IBP Lead, Fonterra Cooperative Limited
