A decision is only made when resources are irrevocably allocated to the execution of the decision. Without this, multiple forecast and planning options – as advanced as they may be – remain calculations, maybe insights or, at best, recommendations.

By Costas Xyloyiannis, CEO of HICX With inflation hampering product sales and price rises, manufacturers have profits to protect.
