Shaping the Future of S&OP: Proud Sponsors of Demo Day 2026
We’re delighted to sponsor S&OP Demo Day 2026, an influential event taking place on 19 March 2026 at Hotel Van der Valk, Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. This annual gathering brings together supply chain leaders, planners and technology providers to explore the latest developments in Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) software. As a business with deep roots and a long-standing heritage across the supply chain, planning, and operational transformation, we’re proud to support an event that accelerates progress and informs decision-making in the industry.
Why We’re Sponsoring
Our heritage has always centred on helping organisations make better, more confident planning decisions. Over the years, we’ve seen the challenges of evaluating technology, the length of traditional selection processes and the increasing pressure on teams to make strategic choices quickly and with clarity.
S&OP Demo Day directly addresses these realities, offering attendees a time-efficient, high-value way to see leading S&OP systems in action. The event’s structured format, with live demos from providers and the opportunity to rotate between rooms, makes it easier to compare solutions and understand their practical capabilities. This aligns closely with our mission to help businesses gain clarity, evaluate options objectively and choose technologies that truly support their operational needs.
About S&OP Demo Day
S&OP Demo Day gives visitors the chance to evaluate multiple S&OP and planning tools in one place. Attendees can view live demonstrations from leading software vendors, exploring features, workflows and real-world use cases. The event is designed to streamline the comparison process, offering clarity on functionality, modelling strength, integration potential and user experience.
For supply chain directors, S&OP professionals, and planning teams, this format removes the complexity of independently researching solutions and provides a focused, structured way to understand which tools best meet organisational goals.
The 2026 edition will once again offer side-by-side demonstrations throughout the day, each running in hourly cycles, allowing attendees to customise their route and choose sessions that reflect their priorities.
Our Role at the Event
As sponsors, we’re committed to supporting the industry’s ongoing shift toward more robust, data-driven and resilient planning processes. Our team will be available throughout the day to share insights, discuss challenges and help attendees interpret what they see during the demo sessions. Whether you’re exploring planning system upgrades, considering future-fit architectures, or rethinking scenario planning capabilities, we’re here to help you cut through the complexity and move forward with confidence.
Our Heritage in Supply Chain and Planning
While the technology landscape continues to accelerate, our foundation remains built on decades of practical supply chain and operational experience. We’ve supported organisations across manufacturing, retail, distribution and global logistics as they modernise planning processes, adopt new tools and improve cross-functional alignment.
This heritage underpins our approach at the event. We understand the realities of integrating planning software, the importance of change management and the need to balance ambition with deliverability. Our sponsorship reflects this long-term commitment to advancing industry capability and supporting informed decision-making.
What Attendees Will Gain
By participating in S&OP Demo Day 2026, attendees can expect to leave with:
• Clear visibility of current S&OP technology options
• A practical understanding of how each system handles planning workflows
• Insights to sharpen vendor shortlists and support internal business cases
• A more efficient path to evaluating tools without lengthy discovery phases
• Opportunities to discuss challenges with experts and peers
Why This Event Matters
With supply chain volatility, regulatory demands and customer expectations continuing to evolve, organisations need planning processes that are both robust and agile. Choosing the right S&OP system is becoming increasingly critical to achieving these outcomes.
S&OP Demo Day offers a rare opportunity to make those choices quickly, confidently and with a full understanding of the landscape. As sponsors, we’re proud to support an event that empowers the industry to make better planning decisions, faster.
