Brain of Supply Chain System (4 Pages)
by Ashfaque Ahmed
Jun 19, 2004
Abstract : A software tool called advanced planning and optimization, APO, for short, is used to make a supply chain system cost effective and integrated.

Advanced Planning and Optimization Software: Myths, Facts, and User Perceptions (7 Pages)
by Ashfaque Ahmed
Jul 6, 2004
Abstract : Advanced planning optimization (APO) or advanced planning and scheduling (APS), as it is sometimes called, has been creating a lot of confusion and skepticism, albeit for wrong reasons, because of its many publicized failures, especially in tactical and strategic use.

However there is a renewed interest in APO and many vendors are creating easy-to-use systems along with new awareness. This coupled with its profound success in mission critical tasks will result in more users using APO systems.
