The simulation wasn’t as intuitive as I thought at first; it took three tries and 20 steps in order to get the 61% buy in order to complete the simulation. There was one steps taken that gave a 0 or neutral buy‚ basically a waste of money and time. I quickly evaluated that in order to start a change process and achieve the buy in and support‚ activities need to be done in a certain order. I think the simulation does take into account the perceived human emotions surrounding change‚ however‚ it only

Abstract The present research paper investigates the IT application of collaborative planning‚ forecasting and replenishment (CPFR). The first part of the paper sets a theoretical framework which initially defines the software use and implementation‚ and then recognizes the key advantages of this particular software. Moreover‚ to be fairly critical some major pitfalls identified by academics and practitioners are also presented. At the end it is up to the individual organization to make their
