Demand Planning

The demand planning category exhibits unusual uniformity at the top, where o9 Solutions, SAP, Kinaxis, and Anaplan all achieve 60-62% shortlist rates with maximum model diversity (4), suggesting genuine cross-model agreement rather than single-source bias. This tight clustering indicates these platforms have established clear market leadership in forecasting and S&OP capabilities. The 39-brand gap between consensus and evaluation sets, combined with 0% prompt coverage, reveals a category where brand awareness significantly outpaces rigorous comparative assessment—practitioners know the major players but lack structured evaluation frameworks.
