CRP Walmart & Procter and Gambel

This document discusses the Continuous Replenishment Program (CRP) between Procter & Gamble (P&G) and Walmart. Prior to 1988, the business relationship between the two companies was poor despite $375 million in annual sales. Through CRP, P&G and Walmart began sharing inventory and sales data using information technology. This allowed them to better coordinate their supply chains and replenish stock based on customer demand, reducing costs and inventories while increasing sales. The partnership also used data sharing to inform category management decisions around product selection, placement, pricing, and promotions.
