With which kinds of customers? Does it help with the New Product Development and Design process? How are the demand and supply plans for the detailed product mix managed in a way that is consistent with the volume plans from S&Op? Is S&Op really needed in a company using Continuous Improvement methods like Lean Manufacturing or Tqm/6 Sigma? How does S&Op work with Supply Chain Management: outside the company, with customers, and with suppliers? In what size company does S&Op work best? How does it work in privatelyheld companies, global companies and companies using a matrix organization structure? Does S&Op survive ownership or organization changes? How can a company be sure that its financial plans match its operational plans?
