Sales and Operations Plans are used to align operations to cost projections. Should a budget be used in parallel or independent of the S&OP?

The budget is often a 'lag' indicator of business performance and all 'fixes' are as a result of data entry inputs. An S&OP on the other hand looks at forward forecasting and regular intervals for review.

What process for review does your company follow and what measures have you deployed to ensure that the process is understood and the engagement is in play?

Totally agree that 'Sales" and "operations" plans has to align operations to cost projections and that budget be used  in paralled of S& operations, as sales expectations are usually and in fact, "The Pivot Element" depending on which, the organization start building on it, the cost projections and setting up the annual budget as well.
