Statement |

Collaborative Planning Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR®) is a well documented nine step process developed
and maintained by the Voluntary Interindustry Commerce Standards Association
(VICS) for use by trading partners.
In the CPFR® process a trade item information request is one trading
partner’s request to the other to send product activity, forecast, or
performance data, when the partner does not automatically send data.
One trading partner
sends a trade item information request to another to request forecast, product
activity, or performance history for one or more products. A request of this type is needed if one party
does not regularly send information to the other, but sends it only upon
request.
