Forecasting

Good inventory management starts with a sound prediction of the demand for the products being sold.  This prediction is commonly called a forecast.   Most forecasts are generated by estimating future demand based on past sales or information about future events expected to drive sales up or down.  The use of good forecasting techniques allow your company to plan resource usage and meet customer expectations in a timely manner; bad forecasting or no forecasting may lead to costly stock-outs or excessive inventory levels.

We can help you develop good forecasting techniques that are data- and information-driven and that allow you to predict demand patterns in time, quantity, and portfolio makeup.  Our predictive techniques combine statistical analysis of past demand and extrapolation modeling to account for knowledge of future demand-altering events.
