IBP and Learning Support

Overview

Global IBP

The Integrated Business Planning (IBP) process aims to transform business decision making that will result in profitable and sustainable growth balancing strategic, financial and operational objectives. It is a cross-functional, rolling planning process integrating product, marketing, sales, supply chain, partner and financial plans into one aligned plan for the business through a global standard. This single set of numbers will leverage next generation orchestration and analytic technology coupled with data and digital savvy Pepsi Co talent, and – in most markets – an enabling decision-support tool, ensuring agile and fast decision-making to take us to the next level above the competition.

IBP goes beyond supply & demand matching; it is a leap forward for the business, enabling faster, more coordinated and more informed decision making with increased visibility from supplier to customer. It is action-oriented and focused on the business across weekly Sales & Operations Execution (iS&OE), Period Sales & Operations Planning (iS&OP), and Yearly Strategic Planning
