Every CPG company that has ever onboarded a new planning or analytics system has hit the same wall: ERP data is defined differently than retail data and distributor data.  Customer and product hierarchies needed for planning in the sales organization are different than what's need in Supply Chain or Finance.  

Little attention has been given to defining data standards in gross-to-net revenue management as an industry. There's no shared playbook for how CPG brands should structure their customer & product hierarchies, align manufacturer, distributor, and retailer data.  Every company reinvents the wheel, usually under pressure and when there’s already an urgent issue

This is the gap we're stepping into.  The CPG Data Summit isn’t a selling conference.  It’s a practitioner forum, a workshop built around the unglamorous infrastructure problems that quietly determine whether your planning and analytics systems work or fail.

You’ll hear from industry peers, software providers, and consultants who’ve mastered the art of turning raw data into actionable insights; participate in roundtable discussions and benchmarking polls; and walk away with concrete tactics to manage and analyze data. In a world where data is the new currency, this summit offers a rare opportunity: transform data from a challenge into a competitive advantage.
