Automated Statistical Forecasting

ipad onepager statistical forecasting pen

With today’s S&OP challenges, companies are looking for ways to make the demand forecast numbers as accurate as possible, to be able to provide great service levels at the lowest cost. This can be accomplished with automated statistical forecasting, where the system generates the most optimal forecast numbers without any human input needed. The time you gain from having this system in place opens the door to spending more time on high-value strategic decision-making parts of the process. The model also allows checking the actuals against the previous forecast numbers and analyzing how the forecast numbers can be improved.
