Managing large long-term contracts can be a challenge for manufacturers, particularly in volatile markets where environmental factors cause unpredictable fluctuations in demand.  Even with buoyant consumer demand, a supply issue in another part of the supply chain can cause an unexpected downturn in demand for components.  The Profit& Contract Management Solution, powered by Anaplan, gives contract managers the data they need to ensure profitability is maintained throughout the entire life of contracts, in the face of variations between contracted and actual sales volume. 

This solution is for businesses that operate as a component part of an industry's supply chain, such as component parts manufacturers, where sales volume is driven by the flow of production for their customers' finished product, as seen in the automotive industry.  Contracts run over several years and are of the scale of running an entire production facility to the capacity specified in the contract.
