Bus/Financial - Management | | French term or phrase: EPCS | From a text regarding Demand Chain Management:
"L’amélioration de la planification pose le problème de calcul de prévisions et de plans de réapprovisionnement fiables et détaillés à très fine maille. Le nombre élevé de références produits (100 000 SKUs ) , les fortes spécificités par catégorie de produit (CPG, PLS, EPCS, Bazar, Textile,..), la variabilité du mix de vente dans le temps (produits saisonniers, promotions) et dans l’espace (200 Magasins) exigent de disposer d’outils appropriés et puissants pour planifier à l’optimum la chaîne logistique"
Can anyone please provide a full definition of the acronym EPCS?
Many thanks. |

May find that UK retailers would not all have exactly the same heading for these products, eg Electicals, Photographic & Home Entertainment,

Sorry, I meant to say electronics, not electricals. How about "Electronics, Photographic, Audio, TV and Home Theatre" |
