Why does manufacturing feel so chaotic for so many businesses?

In the first episode of 2026, recorded in person back in November, we explore one of the most misunderstood areas of ERP: planning and scheduling — and why getting it wrong creates constant firefighting.

We talk through:

• Why planning and scheduling are often confused — and why that matters
• How production delays quickly turn into cash flow problems
• The limits of manual, Excel-driven, tribal-knowledge planning
• What modern ERP systems actually do differently
• How data-driven planning, capacity management, and real-time visibility restore control

If you’re stuck reacting instead of planning — or wondering why inventory, production, and cash never seem aligned — this episode breaks down what’s really happening and how modern ERP systems help bring order back.
