Abstract:The paper seeks to document a responsive strategy to manufacturing planning with Cussons Limited, and company operating in the fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) industry. In the FMCG environment products are manufactured to a sales forecast, and customers demand 100 per cent service levels within lead-times, sometimes in the order of hours rather than days. It is essential that a company's stock replenishment procedures should reflect this situation rather than inhibit its ability to respond.
