Verbatim excerpt from one collected ChatGPT answer; formatting flattened, words untouched.

SAP IBP is winning this question: named in 6 of 9 answers with an average position of 1.3 and leading 4 of 9 responses, it owns the first-recommendation slot that Blue Yonder, despite appearing in 7 answers, never once captures. Blue Yonder's broad but late appearances at an average position of 4.4 signal visibility without authority, which matters because buyers anchoring on AI recommendations for enterprise standardization decisions will hear SAP IBP first.
