It enables them to size their main PG resources monthly with a 18 months horizon. It is the 6 to 18 months term part of the PG  planning system and at this level should focus on integrating the major impacts on the PG demand (marketing phase in/out or conversion projects, adjustments to the commercial strategy...)

or supply (production transfers, large maintenance action, sites upgrades...).For PG operations, the main resources sized through S&OP are:
* Requirements for mobile assets
* Requirements for filling/handling operators based on working units defined in the TRS
