A process map for the demand driven adaptive enterprise model: towards an explicit cartography

Abstract : The DDMRP demand-driven model is being completed and has evolved towards Demand-Driven Adaptive Enterprise (Smith, Ptak, et Ling 2017), a complete business set of rules, from the strategic level to the execution. But when looking for a standard way to understand and implement how the activities are coordinated a drastic lack of precision can be noticed. Through a series of experts' interviews and the study of existing literature on DDMRP, this paper proposes a cartography of the Demand Driven Adaptive Enterprise processes, aggregated in a map. The objective is to share a first knowledge basis to (i) allow for easier implementations and (ii) identify a precise research agenda on the demand-driven methodology.
