CHALLENGE

Businesses, today, struggle with ensuring forecast accuracy and visibility in calculating market demand and retailing estimates when trying to achieve their supply chain goals. Often, stakeholder buy-in for forecast modification is not available. Calculating market demand in real-time and basing forecast on a single error metric is another challenge. The inability to select dynamic models or handle correlation information for new stock keeping units (SKUs) has also become a major hindrance in demand forecasting in supply chain.

The platform calculates market demand based on weekly market trends. It uses descriptive analytics to generate monthly forecasts at SKU level and enables workflow approval and rule-based forecast modification.

based on the best fit error matrix, historical data, and correlation information of all SKUs

  • Improved forecast accuracy by up to 10%

  • Reduced manual efforts through automation
