CPFR^® is a strategic framework within which defined methodologies for pursuing business goals involve multiple functions within trading partner organizations, each working together efficiently and effectively to improve outcomes. Successful CPFR programs use formalized processes and specific patterns of business interactions, technology, training, and metrics to enable diverse groups of participants to work together to achieve end-customer benefits. The design of a successful collaboration program also derives from core enterprise strategic goals that have a good fit with industry and market characteristics as well as the individual competencies of the trading partners. While the core aim of CPFR is to match supply and demand, holistic CPFR programs extend to key business drivers such as collaborative product and assortment development and product life-cycle management.
