The event is designed to provide valuable education for the entire supply chain planning team, from forecasters and demand planners to supply chain executives.

They will also actively participate in a software road map discussion, voting on the features they most want to see included in upcoming versions of the ForecastX Wizard and Atlas Planning Suite.

"This is the most valuable event we run for our customers all year," explained Anne Omrod, president & CEO of John Galt Solutions. "If customers tried to acquire this type of valuable education from these esteemed industry leaders through multiple events, it would easily cost them three times as much. We are providing great value by bundling all of this training in one event."
