Weekly Intelligence Briefing
Decision signals for IBP, supply chain,
and planning leaders.
Each issue monitors the four domains that most directly affect how planning leaders think, decide, and adapt.
Vendor moves, model releases, and platform shifts that change what is realistic inside demand planning and IBP tooling.
How leading organisations are redesigning their planning cycles, governance structures, and cross-functional integration.
Geopolitical, regulatory, and structural shifts that carry planning implications before they reach the headlines.
The organisational and data-integrity issues that determine whether planning outputs are trusted and acted on.
Written by someone who has run S&OP cycles, managed planning transformations, and sat in the cycle room. Not summarised from analyst reports.
IBP Signal carries no sponsorships, no paid placement, and no affiliate relationships. Vendor tools are mentioned with explicit caveats.
Every signal is filtered through one question: does this change what a planning leader should do or ask in the next cycle?
Short enough to read before a planning meeting. Each issue ends with a concrete question or action for your next cycle.
"Most supply chain content is either too tactical to matter at the IBP level or too strategic to affect Monday's planning meeting. IBP Signal is designed to sit exactly in between."

Curator & Publisher — IBP Signal
IBP Signal is curated by Fabio Campofiorito, a supply chain and IBP practitioner with 15+ years of experience in operations, demand planning, S&OP/IBP, and transformation programmes at multinational FMCG organisations.
His work spans end-to-end supply chain redesign, digital planning tools (SAP IBP, e2Open), and programme governance across Europe and global markets. IBP Signal reflects what a senior practitioner actually reads, filters, and considers relevant to the planning function.
One weekly briefing. Practitioner-led. No vendor spin. Built for senior supply chain and IBP leaders who need signal, not noise.
